Get the Remedy You Deserve
Since workers' compensation law imposes strict liability on employers, it is the exclusive remedy for an employee's injuries or illnesses arising out of the course of employment.
If you believe you have an injury or illness that happened during the course of your employment, you need an experienced and knowledgeable attorney to protect your rights.
Insurance Required by the State
Workers' compensation insurance is typically required by the state for every employee – although state law may provide for specific exemptions for officers / owners, small companies, domestic workers, farm hands, and independent contractors.
Your Rights to Recover for Your Injury
The worker's compensation statutes substantially changed after February 1, 2014. Your rights to recover against your employer differ depending on your date of accident. Randy Wagner, Attorney, LLC and Jennifer Liggett, Liggett Law, LLC can help you distinguish the difference in the laws.
Were You Injured on the Job?
Workers' compensation laws are strict liability - fault and negligence by the employer need not be established in order to collect benefits. However, the injury or illness has to be incurred in the course of employment in order for the workers' compensation system to provide benefits to the injured worker.
