What Determines a Workers’ Compensation Injury?

colorado Workers Compensation Attorney

Are you suffering from a work-related injury?

Do you need help filing for your workers’ compensation benefits?

Are you frustrated fighting your insurance company?

In many cases, the accident and the resulting injuries are obvious: it’s clear the accident happened at work, and that the injuries were caused by the accident.

However, in some cases, an employer or insurance adjuster may have doubts about how and where your injury happened. Make sure you understand your rights and report your injury right away. A workers' compensation lawyer can advise you on your rights.

 

What if my injury is incurred over time?

Many work injuries are caused by repetitive actions. For example, repetitive injuries can be caused by picking up heavy objects over a period of months or years. These types of injuries are common among maids, engineers, bellhops, and food service workers. A little damage is done each time until the injury becomes major and disabling. This is called an "occupational disease."

An injury caused by breathing in chemical fumes or dust can go unnoticed for long periods, but can cause serious, life-threatening diseases covered by workers' compensation.

 

Do I still qualify if I was injured off-site?

If you are at a customer's site, a vendor location or any other location as a part of your assigned work, accident injuries are usually covered by workers' compensation.

"Kaufman and Kaufman was extremely professional in my case. They set appointments as often as I requested which was often weekly or more. They handled all the problems that came up and ended up settling my case for more than I expected. I was very happy with the result."

"Kaufman and Kaufman represented me in a workman’s comp case and I couldn’t be happier with their service. They were very professional and gave me the personal service I was relying on. I hope I never get in that kind of situation again but if I do the Kaufman’s would be the firm I’d call. I highly recommend them."

- Erik (2022)

"Couldn't have asked for a more compassionate and thorough legal representation! Matt was so patient in taking the time to explain everything. The entire staff was incredible. I felt bolstered and validated throughout. I would recommend K&K to anyone going through a dark time with a debilitating injury.. they truly do care about their clients."

"The Kaufman team is very professional and knowledgeable about the work comp laws . They guided me in every step of the process, and if I ever have to do this again , they would be my first call. Without them i wouldn't have been able to pay my bills, and provide for my family. Thanks again to Kaufman and Kaufman for allowing my family to survive."
