  2. Despite being mandated by the federal government, every year –thousands of blue-collar workers are robbed of their due compensation. Now, you can safeguard your rights through work injury lawyers in Philadelphia. However, that poses another problem; lawyers are quite expensive. So how do you decide when it’s time to seek legal aid? By reading this guide, of course.

  3. When you’re having trouble navigating through the state’s regulations. Each workers’ comp application is reviewed by the state’s Workers’ Compensation Board. Mistakes within that application can not only cost you the compensation but also make you liable for legal action.

  4. When your employer denies your employment status. Workers’ compensation is only awarded to employees, not private contractors. As such, the simplest way for an employer to deny you your dues is to deny your employment.

  5. When the treatment you’re receiving feels inadequate. Most states allow employers to designate doctors from whom you can get treated. Now, it’s not uncommon for employers to persuade doctors to reduce medical costs by reducing the quality of your treatment.

  6. When your employer calls you for a vocational assessment. Designed to show you general employability, vocational assessment is often used by employers to reduce your lost wages by showing you are capable of finding suitable work.

  7. When the injury resulted from gross negligence by your employer. The work injury lawyers Philadelphia pawill help you decide if you should fill for tort or not. Because, unlike workers’ compensation, tort makes you eligible for punitive damages.

  8. If you feel your case to be similar to any of these situations, call (216) 206-9068, Cardamone Law. As one of the top workers’ compensation legal teams in Pennsylvania, Cardamone Law offers free confidential consultations as well as contingency fee structures.
