How Can an Attorney Help With My Existing Claim?

If you’re already receiving workers’ compensation benefits, you may still need a lawyer to ensure you’re getting the full benefits you deserve. Here are some of the problems we can help with:

• You aren’t getting the medical treatment you need. Insurers often deny or limit care that injured Minnesotans need to get back to work. 
• Your benefits aren’t the right amount. Minnesota workers’ compensation benefits, are based largely on your “average weekly wage,” which some employers and insurers calculate incorrectly. We’ll help ensure you’re getting the benefits you’re entitled to. 
• Your prescriptions aren’t covered. Reasonable and necessary medical care should be covered by the workers’ comp insurer, including prescription drugs. We can help you fight wrongful denials of prescription medication.
