Learn the Facts and Your Legal Options Directly From a Caring Attorney
The basic requirement for qualifying for workers' compensation benefits in North Carolina is that you must have been injured while performing your job duties or be suffering from an occupational disease. The benefits you can receive may include payment of the costs of medical treatment and partial replacement of your wages while you recover.
Questions About Your Eligibility? We Have Answers.
We can readily address concerns you may have about your eligibility for benefits and put common myths to rest with accurate information. For example:
- Whether you may have been at fault for your work accident is not a factor in your claim.
- You are not always restricted to seeing only a company-appointed physician for treatment for the entire duration of your case.
- A failed drug test after the accident does not automatically eliminate your right to benefits.
- Aggravation of a pre-existing condition may justify a valid claim.
- If you did not report your work injury immediately — or even within a 30-day period — you may still be able to get benefits, and we will know what to do to help.
