VIRGINIA WORKERS' COMPENSATION LAWYER

RICHMOND WORKERS' COMPENSATION ATTORNEY

No matter your line of work, hazards and health threats that can cause you serious injuries are likely present. Fortunately, Virginia employers are required to have workers’ compensation insurance, which ideally provides a quick and easy way for Virginia workers who have been injured on the job to get benefits to cover medical expenses and a portion of lost wages. However, getting the benefits you deserve isn’t always easy. If you are suffering from an on-the-job injury and feel you aren’t getting the Virginia workers’ compensation benefits you deserve, let the Richmond workers’ compensation lawyers of Geoff McDonald & Associates help you.

Well—versed in the laws and processes of Virginia workers’ compensation, the three full-time workers’ comp lawyers with Geoff McDonald & Associates have the knowledge and the skill to fight for your rights. We help hundreds of Virginia’s injured workers each year—workers who are suffering from injuries caused by accidents, malfunctioning equipment, repetitive movements, and inadequate safety provisions among other causes—and we can help you too.

We understand the financial worries you may be facing as your medical bills grow and you lose wages because you can’t work. As a client of Geoff McDonald & Associates, know that we will fight for your rights to help you get the Virginia workers’ comp benefits you deserve. Workers’ compensation typically provides three types of benefits: lost wages, medical fees, and vocational rehabilitation or retraining. In general, you receive compensation for lost wages equal to roughly two-thirds of your gross wages, averaged from a period just before your injury or illness. Customary and reasonable medical fees are also covered.

To help your potential Virginia workers’ compensation claim, keep copies of every claim-related document you receive (letters, medical bills, forms, and benefit checks) and take notes from phone conversations pertaining to your claim and injuries. Additionally, keep a record of your travel times and expenses to and from medical appointments. This information will be useful in appealing your workers’ compensation benefits claim.
