When you suffer an accident, or are injured at work, you have rights.

However, those rights can be lost or limited if you don’t take immediate action. Hiring an attorney does not mean you are “suing your boss or company.”

You are just taking steps to protect your health, your job, and your legal rights. It is against the law to fire an employee for being injured at work or for hiring an attorney.

You need to speak to an experienced worker’s compensation attorney as soon as possible after your injury. The longer you wait, the more your health and your case may be jeopardized.
