A job-related accident that results in injury or disability can be devastating on many levels — physically, psychologically, and financially. Workers who are robbed of their mobility face a sudden and significant adjustment, which compounds the stress of their injury and loss of wages. The complexities of a workers’ compensation claim are often too overwhelming in this situation. You can pass that responsibility on to Handler Henning & Rosenberg’s team of experienced Lancaster workers’ compensation lawyers with confidence since we have been helping injured workers receive compensation since 1922.

We understand the difficult situation in which you find yourself, and we are prepared to guide you through the compensation process with the final goal of securing the benefits you deserve.

Document Your Damages

After you have seen a doctor for the treatment of your injuries, the medical documentation you receive forms the basis of your disability claim, but in truth, the more completely you can document your injuries and the damages you have suffered, the better. If possible, photograph your injuries, the spot where the accident occurred, and any machinery that was involved. Keep copies of your correspondence with your insurer and employer, and any and all receipts for out of pocket expenses. The more complete the record you can assemble, the more successful your claim will be. When you bring this material to a qualified attorney, you can find out exactly where you stand and what options are open to you.

Why Speak With Our Lancaster Workers’ Compensation Attorneys?

Workers compensation laws were written in Pennsylvania to help people just like you. If you have been injured or disabled at work, the payments to which you are entitled were created to defray medical costs and to address living expenses while you recover. You have a right to claim your benefits and the lawyers at HHR Law will not only help you with that process, but will ensure you get the full measure of benefits for which you qualify.

When details are overlooked in a claim for workers’ compensation, the complications that result cause lengthy delays, which is incredibly frustrating as you’re watching your medical expenses grow. There are also tactics employers may use to further delay the process, like asking that you be examined by an independent medical professional or seek vocational counseling. Sometimes injured workers find they are being observed under suspicion of fraud or that legitimate claims for scarring or even amputation are questioned as “disabling.”

Our attorneys have faced these scenarios before, and we understand that waiting for benefits can be excruciating. We will do everything we can to shorten your compensation claims process and to secure your full benefits.
