Workplace Injuries FAQs

​
What should I do after a workplace injury?
Get medical attention and tell the provider how you were hurt at work. Report the injury to your employer promptly and keep a copy of any written report. Write down when, where, and how it happened, along with witness names.
​
What records should I keep?
Save incident reports, photos, medical records, work restrictions, pay records, and messages from your employer or insurer. Keep receipts for expenses and a record of missed work. These documents can help explain your injury and its effect on your job.
​
What if my claim or medical treatment is denied?
Keep the denial letter and related correspondence, including the date you received them. Ask an attorney to review the reason for the denial and the applicable procedure promptly. Deadlines and review processes depend on the state and the type of dispute.
​
What should I bring to a consultation?
Bring available reports, medical records, wage information, and insurance correspondence. Include your employer’s name, the injury date, and any work restrictions. You can contact us before every document is available.
