Workers' Compensation Attorneys

Serving Atlanta, Georgia

If you are injured while at work in Atlanta or anywhere in Georgia, or develop a disease or disability while on the job, you are entitled to benefits under the Georgia Workers' Compensation Act. You may be eligible for weekly income benefits, medical benefits, and a settlement for permanent injuries. In addition, if you are unable to return to gainful employment you may also be entitled to Social Security Disability benefits.

However, filing a claim and obtaining those benefits can be a long, drawn-out process. At Robbins & Associates our Atlanta workers' compensation attorneys have years of experience appearing before the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation, and procuring the workers' compensation benefits for our clients.

Most injuries incurred on the job in Georgia are covered under workers' compensation. Other long-term conditions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome due to repetitive motion, or back pain resulting from heavy lifting, may also qualify. However, proving that your injuries are directly related to your job may be difficult, and you may want an experienced attorney to help handle your case.

In many instances, your employer and its insurance company will try to prevent you from collecting your benefits. The employer may try to steer you to medical care that will limit treatment and release you to go back to work before you are fully able to do so. This issue may go before an administrative law judge for a ruling. Even if the judge rules in your favor, your company's insurance can file an appeal and further prolong your receiving treatment. In the meantime, your injuries may worsen and ultimately prevent you from returning to work at all.
