Being injured on the job can change your life, but there are laws in Minnesota that allow workers to get proper compensation and medical treatment when such injuries occur. These laws involve the workers' compensation benefits that many workers have to use in order to recover from their injuries.
In addition to wage replacement and medical benefits, the injured worker can also take advantage of programs that get them back into the workforce so they can once again earn a wage.If you have been injured on the job and you need assistance filing for workers' compensation or your claim has been denied and you need to appeal, the Law Office Of Joshua Borken can help you.

Getting injured on the job can set you and your family back. Apart from being unable to work while you recover, you may be saddled with medical bills and rehabilitation expenses. The physical, mental and financial toll of an on-the-job injury can be serious and can take months, if not years, to overcome.
Being injured on the job is devastating because it interferes with your livelihood and your physical and mental health. When your ability to work and support your family is interfered with, the stress mounts and can make recovery more difficult. At the Law Office Of Joshua Borken, we understand what you are going through and the importance of the workers' compensation benefits you seek.
If you've been injured or made ill at work, you may need to file for workers' compensation. It replaces a percentage of your wages, pays for medical care and pays for rehabilitation, so you can go back to work and once again earn a good wage. While the injury or illness can be life-changing, workers' comp relieves some of the impact caused financially and medically.
Employers are required to carry workers' compensation insurance to protect their employees in the event of an injury. However, obtaining all of the benefits to which you may be entitled is not always easy. At the Law Office Of Joshua Borken, attorney Josh Borken helps injured clients file for the workers' compensation benefits.
As a worker in Minnesota, you have rights and can exercise those rights. For instance, you can file a workers' compensation claim when you are injured on the job. Minnesota law has given you this right because workplace injuries can prevent a person from being able to earn a wage.
By ensuring that employees are provided benefits, such as wage loss replacement and medical benefits, that person can return to work in the same field or a different field.It is actually in the best interest of the state that injured workers are provided benefits because the economy counts on it. Imagine if every injured worker didn't receive benefits.

I very much appreciated the constant contact because while I didn’t understand the legal parts he definitely helped me ease the worry. I also really enjoyed the sence of humor because in a tough situation it was refreshing to make light of it from time to time. I will definitely be recommending him to anyone who needs legal assistance of this nature. I was very satisfied. You shouldn’t be disappointed while hiring him.

Josh is a BEAST.
I was hurt on the job and it was NOT at all handled, like you would expect or should expect a Huge well known company to handle it.
I was extremely nervous and worried about my injury and my job. I had very high anxiety about calling a attorney.I was very apprehensive, because all the attorneys that i have ever had ( Only saw my skin color and a transman) they NEVER saw me as a human or fought for me and along side of me.
That all changed as soon as i met Josh.Josh treated me like a human from the moment that we spoke and met,i never felt judged,He was always very respectful

Josh is an honest lawyer who listens and is kind. He took our case when another lawyer told us that unless we mortgaged our house to pay for expensive reports, we''d lose the case. It just wasn't true. Thanks to Josh, we won. He's quite exceptional and loves the law. Don't hesitate. He's the one you want defending you.

Josh was Awesome! Any time I had questions he was quick to respond. He explained the case in detail to what was the best way was to deal with it. Josh was up front and honest. There's no way I could have gotten a better result from any one else.

I was injured on the job in Public Service. Josh and his team were with me every step of the way, sometimes even ahead of me. Every concern or question was met with caring, knowledgeable professionalism. I truly felt that I was never having to face my situation by myself. I have recommended him to close personal friends and will continue to do so. If you are in a situation with a difficult employer, I would want this lawyer and his team on your side.

I am an over the road trucker who lives in Illinois and worked for a company out of Minneapolis. I was injured on the job, in Kentucky, I tore my right shoulder rotator cuff while unloading. Josh was able to assist me in every step of the workers compensation process. And after all was said and done, I am extremely satisfied with the out come. I would most definitely recomend Josh to any injured worker that needs professional legal representation in this highly specialized area of law.
