Workers Compensation Attorney in Saint Peters, MO

Workers Compensation Overview

Workers' compensation is your right under the law if you have been injured in an accident while on the job. Workers' compensation was designed to protect workers from losing everything if they were injured on the job and could not work.

Protecting the Rights of Workers
 
At the Johnson Law Firm, in St. Peters, Missouri, we represent workers, including construction workers, factory workers, farm workers and office workers, injured in a job-related accident or activity. We handle cases at all stages of a workers' compensation or personal injury claim, including filing, hearings and appeals, with skill, diligence and care.
 
Workers' compensation rules are technical and confusing to most people. For instance, our clients are initially unaware that a disability is figured by percentage of the body that is affected; the company that handles payroll may not calculate wage benefits accurately; or there are ways to protect the injured worker, a company doctor biased toward the employer or that injured workers have a right to obtain their own doctor.

We offer a free initial consultation during which time we can explain your rights and detail how we can help you. We have succeeded in helping a significant number of clients obtain income while injured or recover a settlement for disability.
 
Our St. Peters law firm has helped clients overcome issues like these:

• The company doctor has said that you are ready to return to work, but you are physically unable to do so, or you believe you have a permanent partial disability.
• Your employer denied that your injury is job-related.
• You are not receiving the temporary total disability benefits you are entitled to for the time you are unable to work.
• You are not receiving the right amount of wage benefits.
• You are treated negatively or are fired after filing for workers' compensation benefits.

We represent clients throughout Missouri handling workers' compensation cases, personal injury and wrongful death claims, and criminal defense cases.
