Oklahoma Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Most people struggle with the question about whether or not they should hire an attorney for their workers' comp claim. 

We have found over the years that there are three primary reasons to hire an attorney for a workers' compensation or injury claim:

1. You are not familiar with the process and simply want the comfort of knowing that an experienced attorney is helping look out for your best interests.
2. You are having trouble getting the medical care that you need.
3. No matter what medical care you get, you will have some permanent issues (pain, weakness, loss of function, etc.).

What is the risk or cost in hiring an experienced Oklahoma lawyer for your workers' compensation injury claim?

• Free consultation for all work and injury claims - Since insurance companies handle thousands of workers' compensation and injury claims every day, you have a right to know what your basic rights are. The insurance adjusters, no matter how nice they are, have no obligation to tell all to which you may be entitled.

• Contingent Fees for all workers' compensation and injury claims -This means there is no financial risk to you.  We do not get paid unless you get a financial recovery. And we front necessary expenses on your behalf.

August 26, 2011, all existing Oklahoma Workers' Compensation laws were repealed and replaced with similar, but different and more limited laws.

The basic benefits for all workers' comensation cases remain the same:

• Prompt and resonable medical treatment within 7 days of ACTUAL knowledge of an INJURY, not just a potential injury causing event.

• Compensation for Temporary Total and Partial Disability at 70 percent of the average gross weekly wage.

• Compensation for Permanent Partial Impairment or Disability. Including Permanent Total Disability.

• As well as vocational rehabilitation benefits.

• Other benefits may also be available for various workers' compensation claims and injured workers.
