People suffering on the job injuries face many problems. In addition to needing medical care, their budgets are often strained by a decrease or loss in wages. Worker's compensation insurance will cover you for your medical care and the majority of your lost wages. In addition, you may be entitled to payment for partial or total disability.

The attorneys at Thomas & Lawrence, P.A., can help you: obtain appropriate medical care; receive compensation for lost wages; and obtain fair compensation for any resulting disability.

Sometimes, the worker's compensation insurer refuses to provide the benefits that the claimant deserves. For example, a treating doctor may report that an injured worker is ready to return to work before he or she is actually able. Many times obtaining the opinion of another doctor can prevent this from happening. Thomas & Lawrence, P.A., can help you do this. We have an attorney that focuses his practice almost exclusively on worker's compensation cases.

You do not have to prove that your employer was at fault for causing your injury. Worker's compensation covers you for any on the job injury regardless of who was at fault for causing it.

Often, we find that someone other than the employer was at fault for causing an accident. In this situation, the client has both a worker's compensation claim and a personal injury claim. Because our firm handles both types of cases, we pursue the two cases simultaneously.
