Salchow Law Firm

Workers' Compensation

Offices serving the Kansas City, Springfield, and Joplin areas.

Before agreeing to a settlement package, it is important to fully understand the nature and extent of your injury. You should be properly healed before beginning settlement discussions. The remedy provided by workers' compensation includes payment for the time you are unable to work, medical bills, and payment for any temporary or permanent disability you have suffered. In some cases, we recommend an independent medical exam and vocational rehabilitation exam.

While the law has become more employer friendly, it is important to have an experienced Missouri workers' compensation lawyer on your side to protect your interests. You should not have to bear the burden of paying for medical care when you suffer a workplace injury. Disability benefits, especially for long term disability, are vital to protecting your future if you have been seriously injured at work.

We can help reduce the stress of this process by coordinating benefits from social security, workers' compensation, and long term disability plans. Processing these claims can be confusing. We can help you manage your workers' compensation claim.

When you are injured at work, through no fault of your employer, you may still be entitled to workers' compensation. In addition, if your injury was caused by someone else's negligent conduct, you may have a separate claim against them for the harm you suffered.

You have a limited amount of time to file a personal injury claim or you may lose your ability to recover damages now and in the future. Please see our Deadlines Page for more information on claim time deadlines.
