Workers' Compensation Attorney
Birmingham Alabama, Chattanooga Tennessee

If you've been injured on the job and need legal advice or representation regarding your rights under workers' compensation in Alabama or Tennessee, contact the experienced Workers' Compensation lawyers of Wettermark, Holland & Keith today. Injuries sustained on the job are covered by most employers' workers' compensation insurance.

Workers' Compensation Injury Lawyer

After a job-related injury occurs, your employer will likely ask you to submit medical records and other information documenting the nature and scope of your injuries. Typically, injured workers must submit to a physical exam by their employer's insurance doctor.

We Fight For Your Rights

While most workers' compensation applications are relatively straight forward, an examining insurance physician may try to claim your injuries are either not as serious as first reported or due to a prior condition. A medical evaluation that downplays the seriousness of your injuries will likely result in an expectation on the part of your employer that you will return to work sooner than you are able, as well as a lower payout in benefits for your injuries. At the law office of Wettermark, Holland & Keith, our workers' compensation lawyers protect the rights and interests of injured workers by working with them, medical specialists, and economists in documenting the scope and financial costs associated with their injuries.

My HR Representative says I could Lose my Job - What Should I Do?

Most companies recognize the liability involved in denying workers benefits and rights provided to them under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). However, some employers try to reduce costs associated with injured employees by misleading them about their rights while intimidating them to return to work sooner than they are able. Our attorneys put employers on notice when they try and deny workers' compensation benefits, family medical leave, or disability benefits to our clients.

What Happens if My Injuries Lead to Long-Term Disability?

In construction site accidents or injuries involving severe head trauma, spinal cord damage, or amputations, it may be necessary to apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Since most first-time applicants are denied Social Security benefits, you shouldn't get discouraged if you've already been denied. At Wettermark, Holland & Keith, our attorneys work closely with clients in preparing all necessary SSDI appeals, referring clients to medical specialists who can verify their injuries and testify on their behalf.
