Steps to Take After a Workplace Injury

When you’ve been injured on the job, give yourself the best opportunity to receive all of the benefits afforded to you by following these three easy steps.

Report Your Accident & Injury

First, you need to alert your employer of a job-related accident and your injury right away. Both you and your employer may be required to fill out an injury report.

Go To Your Family Doctor

Get any necessary referrals and opinions written by your family doctor — not one provided by an employer or insurance company — and be sure to keep track of any accrued medical costs and time missed.

Report Your Accident & Injury

After filing a report with your employer and getting a full checkup from your doctor, contact me to determine if your injury is covered under the law. The quicker that I can begin fighting for you, the better.

If you’ve been injured, call me today for a free, no-obligation consultation. I only receive a fee if I obtain a recovery for you.

I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, at 402-204-0469
