On The Job Injury Attorneys in Albany OR
In Oregon, employees are protected by Worker’s Compensation Law if they become injured at work. A settlement for worker’s compensation benefits might cover medical bills and a portion of missed wages until an employee is able to return to work. However, receiving these benefits is not always simple or guaranteed. For instance, there are strict requirements and fixed time limits that, if not followed, will jeopardize your chances of having your claim approved endangering the benefits that you need and deserve. Retaining the services of a knowledgeable worker’s compensation law firm like Shlesinger & deVilleneuve is your best option for protecting your rights and securing your benefits! While worker’s compensation laws are meant to protect the worker, they have become so complex that an injured employee has very little chance of being awarded the benefits they need. Shlesinger & deVilleneuve is dedicated to advocating for those who are injured and overwhelmed by the filing process. We can answer the questions that you have so that you can decide the best course of action to take.
