Workers' Compensation

Have you been injured on the job?

If you have sustained an injury while working, there are many questions you need answered. You may be wondering whether your accident is covered under workers' compensation or whether you are entitled to a doctor, an MRI, or a specialist. It is not uncommon for an injured worker to be misled by the employer or insurance carrier.

You may be entitled to benefits.

If your work-related injury has prevented you from returning to working, or has prevented you from working fulltime, under workers' compensation, you are entitled to receive up to 104 weeks of indemnity benefits to aid you. In the unfortunate event that you have suffered a catastrophic injury, you may be entitled to benefits for the rest of your life.

Choose a fierce advocate

The benefits you're eligible for will depend on the nature of the injury, your past earnings, and your current work duty status. Attorney Jorge Luis Colón is a former insurance defense attorney who knows and understands that the employers and the insurance companies care about their bottom line but have little regard to your physical or financial well-being.
