Workers' Compensation
Rhode Island Workers' Compensation Lawyers
At Schreiber & Schreiber, we represent employees who are injured on the job in claims for lost wages and medical treatment expenses against private industry, federal, and state and local government employers and their workers' compensation insurers. In most states, workers are entitled to compensation for injuries that occur on the job, regardless of fault or negligence. Workers compensation claims pay for medical bills and disability. Many claims must be made within a short period of time; otherwise the injured person will be forever prevented from seeking compensation.
Workplace accidents and on-the-job injury can happen to any type of worker. Whether you have suffered a serious injury in a construction accident, or a back injury working in a factory, we can help you. We handle workers' compensation applications, appeals, reinstatements, and investigation of the workplace injury. We have over 40 years of experience dealing with personal injury situations, including managing insurance company issues and medical questions. We work hard to get our clients the money they have coming for their injuries.
Our workers' compensation lawyers are highly familiar with the principles and procedures involved in a workers' compensation claim. From filling out the appropriate forms to determining if a particular injury is eligible for compensation, we can handle whatever issues your situation presents. While an injury must have caused you to miss at least three days of work to be eligible for workers' compensation, the types of injuries included is very broad. Workplace burns, head injuries, back injuries, loss of fingers or toes, disability, and many injuries causing scars or disfigurement can be compensated.
