Oklahoma City's Top Workers Comp Attorney

Oklahoma City Workers’ Compensation Attorney

If you have sustained an injury at work you are entitled to receive benefits as a result of Oklahoma workers’ compensation law. The very first thing to do is to contact an Oklahoma City workers’ compensation attorney at the Hudson Law Office for your free initial consultation. From there, we will determine the level of compensation due to you for medical treatment and for lost wages from work time missed.

Every company with at least one part time employee must provide workers compensation insurance protection. Additionally, even if you have signed a waiver of this coverage, that document is invalid under current Oklahoma law. These laws are complex and constantly changing. Do not assume that the outcome that a friend or associate may have experienced five years ago is what would occur today.

Areas of specialization include:

On-the-job injuries
Lost wage recovery
Rehabilitation compensation
Mandated return-to-work restriction enforcement
Forced termination reversal
Benefits for permanent disability

Many of our clients had been under the impression that no compensation will be awarded if the injury was their fault. That is not true. The Oklahoma workers’ compensation law covers all injuries, irrespective of responsibility. The Hudson Law Office will ensure that your employer and its insurance company will be held accountable for your injury.

Not only are you entitled to complete heath care for your injury, your company must also provide you with two-thirds of your regular wages. And, should it occur that the employer’s physician determined you can return to work, yet you do not feel you can, we can help you pursue a secondary medical opinion. Always be certain to document your request for benefits from your employer. We will assist you with these procedures, as you must act in a timely manner to be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits.

Other considerations include the development of a health condition as a direct result of job-related conditions. It may also be advisable to pursue a personal injury lawsuit subsequent to your workers’ compensation claim. At the Hudson Law Office, we can advise you of your options and help you obtain all of the benefits you deserve.

Insurance companies will often aggressively resist your claim for benefits. You need someone on your side that will fight for your rights all the way to the end. This is certainly not a time to avoid seeking assistance. Call an assertive Oklahoma City workers’ compensation attorney at the Hudson Law office today. We will schedule a personal conference with a workers’ compensation specialist you will help you collect benefits, protect your family, and defend your right to collect.
