MICHIGAN


Worker's Compensation is a complicated area of law in Michigan. Did you know that you may have a compensable worker's compensation injury even if you are running an errand away from your work site when you get injured? Or that you may have a claim that you can pursue in Michigan even if the injury occurred out of state, or if you are not a Michigan resident? Or that your claim can lose much of its value unless you continue to look for work?

You also may not know that you do not necessarily need a specific injury in order to have a compensable claim. Injuries that occur over time, due to engaging in activities that aggravate a pre-existing condition, also may be compensable.

Loss of a body part, or loss of function of a body part, can guarantee you a certain benefit amount, even if you do not miss time from work.

Parking lot injuries can be compensable.

Injuries suffered while traveling for work can be compensable.

Certain conditions, such as heart disease and psychological conditions, may only be compensable if your work contributes to them in a significant way.

These examples represent just a small part of the twists and turns of Michigan Worker's Compensation law. Your employer and its insurance company hire people who know all of the legal strategies and options they can pursue. Shouldn't you? Solomon Law offers many years of worker's compensation experience to help you get everything you deserve.

Have your benefits been cut off by the employer or insurance company? Often, the other side stops benefits when it really has no strong basis to do so, hoping that you will go away and not bother them anymore. Or maybe they stop paying you, with the goal of settling their lifetime exposure for pennies on the dollar.

You need an advocate! Solomon Law offers negotiation strategies, as well as a willingness to go to trial and stand up to the people who are denying you benefits. We also want to help you if you need to appeal a Magistrate's decision.

FEDERAL


Federal employees have their worker's compensation rights determined in a system unique for them. Solomon Law helps injured federal workers get the benefits they deserve.

What Is Workers' Compensation?

Workers' compensation is a no-fault insurance program that provides medical care and wage replacement benefits to employees who are injured or become ill on the job. Unlike a personal injury lawsuit, you don't have to prove your employer was at fault for the accident. The system is designed to provide benefits quickly and efficiently. However, even with a seemingly straightforward claim, a lawyer can be a critical advocate for your rights.

Why You May Need a Workers' Comp Attorney

While you have the right to file a claim on your own, having a knowledgeable attorney on your side can make all the difference. You may need an attorney if:m

  • Your Claim Was Denied: This is a common occurrence. We can help you file an appeal and fight the denial.
  • Your Benefits Were Delayed or Disputed: If the insurance company is refusing to pay or questioning the extent of your injury, we can step in and negotiate on your behalf.
  • You Have a Pre-existing Condition: If the insurance company claims your injury is due to an old condition, we can help prove that the work incident aggravated it.
  • You Are Facing Employer Retaliation: An attorney can protect you if your employer threatens to fire you or retaliates against you for filing a claim.
  • Your Injuries Are Severe: For serious or long-term injuries, a lawyer can ensure you receive adequate compensation for all future medical needs and lost earning capacity.
