No workplace is 100 percent safe and every worker, regardless of the industry or profession, can suffer serious physical injuries or develop occupational illnesses. Depending on the severity, an on-the-job injury can be painful, debilitating or even life-changing. If you or someone close to you was injured on the job, it is important to understand your rights and the compensation benefits to which you may be legally entitled.
Workers’ compensation provides for injuries you have suffered on the job, regardless of who is at fault. However, failing to adequately account for every step of the workers’ compensation process can result in a delay or even a denial of benefits.
At The Waffenschmidt Law Firm, LLC, our skilled lawyers seek to recover the maximum amount of benefits on your behalf.
Taking Legal Action After A Work Injury
Our lawyers do everything possible to secure the benefits you need and deserve. Examples of the types of work injuries and occupational diseases for which we have successfully recovered workers’ compensation benefits include:
- Slip, trip and fall-related injuries
- Repetitive strain injuries
- Motor vehicle crashes
- Cuts and lacerations
- Amputation injuries
- Inhalation of toxic materials and chemicals
- Muscle strains and sprains
- Falling object-related injuries
- Hearing and eyesight loss
Recover Maximum Compensation For Your Work Injury
In every case — as with all personal injury matters — we work exclusively on contingency — we will never collect any fees unless we obtain the benefits you need and deserve.
Additionally, if you were injured as a result of a third party, our lawyers will pursue a third-party claim, if applicable. We will not leave any money on the table as we aggressively advocate for you.

Insurance companies may be quick to try and get you to settle. This is a common tactic that consistently undervalues injuries and can leave you without full coverage for the full extent of your injuries.
First things first. See a doctor, then find a lawyer.
