| Unionized workers sustain the majority of work-related injuries because they often work in the most hazardous of work environments. These labor unions include: | |

|
Unfortunately, it is not always easy to obtain benefits. There are several circumstances where it is particularly important that you contact an attorney for assistance.
- An employer has denied that you were injured while on the job,
- You have been refused medical treatment,
- You have received a Notice of Denial from the insurance company,
- Compensation was promised but has not materialized,
- You are without income,
- An employer or insurance company has requested your deposition,
- Your employer does not carry compensation insurance,
- A third party has caused your accident
If you are an injured union worker you are protected by both your union's contract with the employer and state law. An experienced workers compensation lawyer can work with your union's agreements to help you secure the benefits you need.
Only experienced attorneys can advise you of the appropriate course of action to increase the probability of winning your claim. Your attorney can also provide information on the ways that claims can be settled including arbitration, mediation, and collective bargaining. Again, a competent attorney will develop a strategy to ensure the best results in your claim. It is important to remember that if you retain an attorney because you have been denied benefits or face a change in benefits, that law states that the majority of attorneys’ fees will be paid by the Workers’ Compensation Insurer.
