Mohave County Workers’ Compensation Lawyers

If you have suffered a work-related injury, you might probably be assessing the need to hire a workers’ compensation lawyer. Mainly because workers’ compensation is an administrative process that is unlikely to go to court. While this may have some truth in it, workers’ compensation actually follows a complex set of procedures and rules. Hiring our Mohave County Workers’ Compensation Lawyers enables you to easily navigate your workers’ compensation claim.

Workers’ Compensation Requirements

Several factors are considered in determining eligibility for workers’ compensation. They include:

Being an employee
Your employer carrying a workers’ compensation insurance
Being in an employment situation that is not exempted from workers’ compensation
Suffering a work-related injury

Our experienced lawyers are able to determine your eligibility for a claim. And, whether you should appeal in case your claim is denied.

Workers’ Compensation Benefits

Benefits that are typically available under workers’ compensation include:

Medical Coverage

The injured worker receives proper medical care so as to resume work within the shortest time possible.


Disability Benefits

These benefits are aimed at replacing any lost wages of an employee due to a work-related injury that caused disability. The disability benefits may not be provided unless the particular disability extends past a specified waiting period.

Rehabilitation Benefits

Vocational rehabilitation may be provided to injured employees who are no longer able to carry out their previous jobs. Psychological therapy can also be provided to cater to work-related mental injuries.

Death Benefits

The death of an employee following a work-related injury may result in the provision of death benefits to their next of kin.

Processing of a Workers’ Compensation Claim

In order to receive the workers’ compensation benefits after a work-related injury, you must adhere to the correct claim process. Which includes the following guidelines:

Reporting the injury to your employer within the shortest time

The initial step of making a workers’ compensation claim is first reporting the work-related injury to your employer. Which should be done within the shortest time possible to prevent the insurance company from denying your claim.

Your employer should provide you with the necessary paperwork

After being notified about your injury, your employer should avail to you:

Reporting forms for the insurance provider of the workers’ compensation
Reporting form to the workers’ compensation board of the state
Relevant information on employee rights concerning workers’ compensation benefits
Information concerning how you will return to work
The forms provided by your employer will depend on the type of work-related injury and the insurance provider.

Proceeding to file the claim

Once your employer submits your paperwork to the insurance carrier of the workers’ compensation, your claim will have officially been filed. Your doctor will also be required to mail a report on your medical condition.


The claim is either approved or denied by the insurer

After your claim has been filed, the insurance company makes a determination concerning it. If the insurer contacts you with payment details, your claim will be approved. It may, however, be denied if the insurer finds it unfit for workers’ compensation benefits. Our skilled Mohave County workers’ compensation lawyers are of absolute importance in this case. If you are unsatisfied with the insurer’s offer, we can help you pursue a larger settlement. Also, we can appeal your claim denial or request the insurer to review the decision.
