Workers’ Compensation

Our Firm has extensive experience in the field of Workers’ Compensation Law. That background includes representation of small businesses and employers, but also injured workers. Knowing the system from both perspectives gives our team a better understanding of the case and the challenges that may be presented.

Workers’ Compensation provides benefits for employees who suffer a work-related injury or illness. In Florida, the primary benefits provided are partial reimbursement of lost wages and payment of medical bills for treatment that is directly related to the alleged on-the-job injury. Florida law requires that every employer with four or more employees carry workers’ compensation insurance.

Our experienced legal team can help both employers and business owners as well as injured workers.
