The time limit to file a lawsuit is called the statute of limitations and varies depending on where you live. In general, many places have a two year statute of limitations, but in some places it’s three years. Our attorneys can help you determine whether or not your chance to file has expired.

Workers’ compensation is a type of insurance that employers are required to have on behalf of their employees in case they are injured on the job. Because workers’ compensation is insurance, the companies that provide it are reluctant to pay out claims, as giving people the benefits they need cuts into their bottom line. Instead, they will make it as difficult as possible to get benefits, and when they do make an offer, it will be much lower than what you actually should receive.

This is why it is so important to have a lawyer on your side. CHASENBOSCOLO can help you dispute the workers’ compensation company’s denial of your claim or low offer of benefits.

No attorney can tell you exactly what your case is worth without first hearing the details of your situation. However, there are many factors that may weigh in on that value. Your medical costs, lost wages, and long-term damages are considered when your case’s value is determined.

Should you file a lawsuit, your attorney will help you figure out what amount of compensation is fair as a settlement. If the defendant does not offer a fair settlement, we will be ready to take your case to trial where a jury will ultimately determine what your case was worth.
