Workers Compensation
On-the-job injuries can be frightening. When you get hurt at your place of employment, you might ask "How do I get help from a Doctor?" or "If I can't work because of my injury, how can I pay my bills?" Hutton & Hutton assists Kansas residents who have suffered an injury in the course of their jobs. The workers compensation process can be confusing and often frustrating, and insurance companies will take advantage of injured workers who do not have an attorney.
When you get hurt at work, your employer and the insurance company are required to provide you a physician's care. You may also be entitled to payment if you miss work for extended periods because of your injury, as well as other benefits if you are unable to return to your job in the future. However, you will not obtain those benefits if you fail to make a claim, and your employer may not advise you of your rights.
State law limits the amount of time you have to file a claim for benefits following a work injury. If you do not notify your employer quickly of a work injury and promptly request benefits, you can lose your rights to obtain medical care and financial compensation for your injury. Statistics from the Kansas Department of Labor show that injured workers who hire an attorney generally recover far more benefits than those who are not represented. You need lawyers who can lead you through the baffling maze of legal requirements that you will face during this trying time.
