You deserve a fair settlement for your injury on the job.

Workers Compensation refers to a no-fault insurance system that offers protections to Mississippi & Tennessee workers who are injured on the job. Employers are required to purchase a policy, even if the company only has one employee in the state.

The no-fault coverage means that:

• Workers who are injured while working are entitled to benefits regardless of who or what caused them to get hurt.
• Employers can’t be sued for workplace accidents and injuries (with limited exceptions).

The purpose of the system is to ensure that injured workers have access to compensation they need right away while also protecting employers from multiple lawsuits for work-related accidents.

While you may technically be entitled to recover workers’ comp benefits, actually getting a check in your hands (so to speak) can be challenging. Your employer probably won’t make things easy for you (they don’t want to see their premiums go up), and neither will the insurance company (they care more about profits than your wellbeing). 

To get the money you need and deserve, you’ll need an experienced injury lawyer by your side.
