Worker's Compensation
Because almost all Massachusetts employers are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance, Massachusetts workers who are injured on the job are entitled to receive workers’ compensation benefits to help pay for lost wages and medical expenses. If you have been hurt at work, it is important to contact a workers’ compensation attorney, because workers’ compensation insurance companies have little incentive to act in the employee’s favor.
Over the years, the attorneys at Sabra & Aspden have successfully handled thousands of workers’ compensation cases. We understand the difficulties faced by injured workers and their families, and we know the importance of getting your workers’ compensation claim and benefits approved quickly so that you can receive the medical benefits and compensation you deserve.
The workers’ compensation system can be a slow and confusing process. Following your work injury, you may have several questions, such as how to get paid, how much you will receive, how your medical bills will be paid, and when to return to work. The experienced attorneys at Sabra & Aspden know the workers’ compensation system and will be with you throughout the process to advise you of your important rights, to help you understand the system, and to pursue any and all treatment and benefits to which you may be entitled.
In workers’ compensation cases, you do not pay attorney’s fees. Those fees are paid by the insurance providers in cases where the employee is granted benefits. If there is a lump sum settlement, the legal fee is a percentage of the settlement.
The attorneys at Sabra & Aspden are dedicated to putting injured workers in the best position to receive the maximum level of benefits permitted by law. Contact us for a free consultation.
