Workers' Compensation

At the Law Offices of Lloyd Stanley, we represent employees and their families who have workers' compensation claims. If you become ill, injured, or if a loved one dies in the course of employment, workers' compensation laws define the benefits to which the employee and their families and dependents are entitled.

Benefits include payment for all medical expense and a portion of the employee's weekly wages. Lost wage benefits depend upon the extent of injury as determined by your doctor.

Your employer will file a claim with the workers' compensation insurance company (or self-insuring employer) who pays medical and disability benefits according to a state-approved formula. Your employer and its insurance company will have an attorney representing their interests. The insurance company will be represented by adjustors whose job is to pay as little as possible. Although the law allows you to represent yourself, having our experience on your side can be of great benefit. Phone our office for your free consultation and put our experience to work for you.
