Workers' compensation insurance is important for both employers and their employees. Should an employee experience a workplace injury, or be diagnosed with an illness that is directly associated with their employment, the employee is entitled to workers' compensation. This includes payment towards covering medical bills, basic medical care, rehabilitation, and reimbursement for a portion of lost wages.
Anytime you are seriously injured in a construction site accident, you should reach out to a qualified attorney. You probably never head off to work expecting to be seriously hurt or killed while performing your job. Nevertheless, construction accidents cause up to 21% of all private sector work fatalities and account for a large percentage of the most serious injuries we see.
If you have been emotionally or physically injured or your property has been damaged, this falls under personal injury law. These laws are designed to ensure the injured party receives compensation for the damages due to another individual's negligence, actions, recklessness or carelessness. This area of law is also known as tort law and functions on both the state and federal levels to protect your rights.

Words cannot express my gratitude for what Attorney Michael Block has done for me with the worst workmans comp case and with the worst work comp insurance company ever! He worked diligently to represent me with tenacity and perseverance I myself found amazing. It has been 8 long years, and Michael remained positive that we would prevail. I must also give credit to his assistant Diane, who help keep me sane during this case. She is the best. I am not saying this just because he won my case, I am saying this because it’s absolutely true. I have and will continue to highly recommend Michael Block

I am giving one star because I had an attorney there. I had an appointment. He took a call during my time, having me sit there for twenty minutes!!! My time is just as valuable. He could have told the receptionist to take a mssg. When my case was over. I said to myself, I WILL NEVER LET THEM HANDLE ANOTHER CASE FOR ME, ever. Twice, I had a bad experience with this law firm. Shame on me for going back a second time.
