Real Help From Workers’ Compensation Lawyers in Missouri

If you have been injured on the job, do not rely on your employer or the insurer to protect your rights. Your employer and the insurance company will act in their best interest, not yours. You need an advocate. You can find one at Hall Ansley, where our workers’ compensation attorneys have for decades appeared before judges daily. This has led to a proven record of results helping injured workers in Springfield and throughout Missouri.

Your Workers’ Compensation Rights

Knowledge is power. The laws surrounding benefits in Missouri can be confusing to workers. We will take the time to educate you about workers’ compensation guidelines. Whether you have not yet applied for workers’ compensation and you need guidance, or your application has been denied or your benefits have been cut off, we can help. Our goal is to secure full workers’ compensation benefits for you as quickly as the system allows.

What Type Of Work Injury Does Your Case Involve?

Our lawyers handle cases involving on-the-job injuries of all kinds, including:

Was your injury the result of an accident in the workplace, perhaps involving a forklift or some other piece of work equipment? Did your injury build up over time, what is referred to as a repetitive motion injury or repetitive stress injury? Perhaps you are unable to work because of an occupational illness suffered because of work conditions. Whatever the case may be, you can be confident that our attorneys know how to pursue full benefits for you.

Our lawyers have helped workers from all industries, including factory workers, warehouse workers, truck drivers, construction workers, office workers and more. While the hazards may vary from one industry to the next, the rights of workers do not. We will protect your rights.

Answers to Common Questions About Workers’ Compensation

I was injured at work. What should I do?

If you have been injured at work, the first thing you should do is report the injury to your supervisor. Missouri law requires prompt notice of injuries to employers.

Were you injured? As your first step, we recommend that you file this notice in writing with your employer to begin the claim for compensation process.

When should I file my claim?

Missouri law contains time limits for filing. Generally, a claim must be filed within two years of: (1) the date of the accident; (2) the last payment of workers’ compensation benefits or; (3) the last medical treatment provided. A claim is only filed by filing with the Division of Workers’ Compensation.

Who is covered by Workers’ Compensation?

Any employer with 5 or more employees, and all employers in the construction industry are required to provide protection for their employees.

Will I get a settlement?

If you suffer a permanent disability, you may be entitled to a settlement. The amount you will recover depends on the nature and extent of disability. Typically, there are disagreements between employers and workers about the nature and extent of the disability.
