Secure Your Rights After a Workplace Injury with Expert Legal Support
SEE WHAT OUR WORKER'S COMPENSATION ATTORNEY IN WALNUT CREEK CAN DO FOR YOU
CALIFORNIA WORKERS' COMPENSATION LAWYER
It is important to understand that when a new employee agrees to participate in the California workers’ compensation system, they are surrendering their right to sue their employer in the event of an injurious accident. This holds true even if an employer's negligence or recklessness somehow contributed to the risk of injury. Workers' compensation insurance was created to protect business owners from lawsuits while also providing workers with some financial stability after a serious workplace injury. Workers’ compensation insurance is supposed to cover both the full cost of medical bills related to an accident, including rehabilitation and continued care if necessary, and two-thirds of the cost of lost wages. However, an experienced workers' compensation insurance lawyer understands that unscrupulous employers may attempt to defraud workers of their due compensation once they accept a claim, and that claims examiners routinely act in bad faith by denying or delaying compensation. This happens far more often than you might expect, especially when a severe injury is involved. At William Schott Law Offices, we know how to hold employers and claims examiners accountable under California state law and keep them from denying or appropriating funds that should be going to an injured worker.
