Workers' Compensation Attorney in Fall River, Massachusetts
The Massachusetts workers' compensation system is a minefield for the average injured worker. While you might get some of the benefits you are entitled toafter a workplace injury, you might not know or be told about all of the benefits available.
You could even find yourself in a fight with your employer about whether you are actually injured or whether your injury was work-related. (As a Fall River workers comp lawyer for more than 30 years, I've seen this happen many times for clients who suffered repetitive stress injuries.)
I'm Dennis Bisio, a Fall River attorney handling workers' compensation claims. I've represented thousands of clients whosuffered serious injuries from:
- Construction site injuries
- Falls on the jobsite
- Work-related car and truck accidents
- Repetitive stress injuries in clerical jobs, assembly line jobs, warehouse and factory jobs
- Industrial accidents, including chemical and electrical burns
- Worsening of pre-existing medical problems (if a work-related injury aggravatedan existing condition)
What You Don't Know Can Cost You Money
The workers' compensation system has a lot of rules and procedures.While you may get immediate help from your employer, it's wise to talk to an experienced workers' compensation attorney SOON after your on-the-job injury so you know how the system operates.
I'm here to help you get the compensation for medical bills, wage replacement while you are not working, disability payments, retraining and vocational rehab, and for permanent scarring and physical damage. I also help family members of workers who died on the job.
I offer a free and confidential consultation to answer your questions and explain your rights.Call 508-222-4848. If you then hire me to handle your case, it is likely that my fees will be paid by the workers' compensation insurance company. In our consultation, ask me about how this.
It's Particularly Important to contact a Workers' Compensation Attorney if…
- You may have made some mistakes right after the accident
- Your employer is claiming your injury wasn't work-related
- Your employer denies coverage because you had a pre-existing condition – this can be a complex case but it may be worth it to fight for compensation
- Your employer has discriminated against you or retaliated against you for filing a workman's comp claim
- You were injured by the actions of someone at your job who isn't an employee of your company
- Your injury was caused by defective equipment
You will be at a real disadvantage without a lawyer's guidance, and you may miss out on the ability to get money for pain and suffering from a third-party lawsuit. View my Workers' Compensation FAQ for additional information.
