Alabama Attorney Helping Clients With Workplace Injury Claims

Anniston, Alabama, Attorney Helping Clients With Workplace Injury ClaimsIf you have suffered a serious injury while at work, you have the right to be compensated for your injuries, and you may be entitled to workers' compensation benefits. Often people become stressed and overwhelmed by the thought of not being able to work and having to support their families. For more than 30 years, we have represented employees all over Alabama in pursuing compensation for all types of work injuries. We know the law and what it takes to handle a claim, in and out of court, and pursue it successfully. The defendant has an attorney because he knows that he needs one. So do you.

If you have suffered a workplace injury, we want to help make sure you are fairly compensated for your injuries. Contact us today for a free, informative and confidential case evaluation with an experienced personal injury and workers' compensation attorney.

At the law office of Charles H. Rice, Attorney at Law, we have handled many cases in  Calhoun County and the surrounding counties (Cleburne, Talladega, Etowah, St. Clair, Clay, Randolph and others) over the past 30 years involving a wide variety of injuries and conditions related to on-the-job accidents, including:

  • Broken bones, strains, sprains and torn ligaments and tendons with poor healing
  • Herniated and ruptured disks
  • Neck, shoulder, hand, knee, foot and back injuries
  • Bone fractures and breaks with poor healing
  • Closed head injuries

We can also help you with the following types of workplace injuries suffered in an accident or as part of your regular job function over time:

  • Loss of hearing or vision
  • Burns and chemical exposure
  • Occupational disease
  • Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) and other pain syndromes
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Nerve damage
  • Psychological injury coupled with physical injury
  • Death

We will help you gather evidence to support your claim, including witness statements, medical records and insurance claims proving treatment for your injuries. If your accident occurred as a result of an accident caused by someone not a co-employee or a defective product  such as a piece of defective machinery or missing a safety guard, we will look at the possibility of a third party claim as well.

Where appropriate you may also be entitled to workers' compensation for your injuries that occurred from a workplace accident. We can help you navigate this process as well from filing the initial paperwork for a claim to helping you with an appeal if your employer or their insurer denies your application.

Any type of work injury claim must be dealt with timely and properly. It is critical to have your injuries be evaluated and treated by medical professionals, but it is equally important to make sure all your legal options to recovering compensation are explored and exhausted as well. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation to see how we can help you use these options to your advantage.
