3 Signs You Have a Solid CA Workers’ Comp Case

After you’ve been injured at work, the last thing you want to think about is legal matters. However, this is something that needs to be handled as soon as possible. An experienced work injury lawyer in Orange County will help make the process as seamless as possible so that you can focus on recovering physically and emotionally. Here are a few signs you’ve got a strong workers’ comp case.

1. You have a workplace accident report.
The employer is required to create an accident report and provide the injured worker with a copy. The accident report is used in the claims process to determine benefits eligibility and by the Orange County workers’ compensation lawyer to build a case.

The report details how the accident occurred, includes witness information, and plays a key role in helping the injured worker obtain the benefits and compensation they deserve.

2. You can prove employee status.
It’s important for an injured worker to prove they were an employee at the time of the accident. Their Orange County workers’ compensation lawyer will need copies of pay stubs and correspondence between the employee and the employer to verify employee status. The attorney will also need photos of the accident scene, time clock reports, and copies of witness testimony to support the workers’ comp case.

3. You have evidence of your injuries.
Injured workers will need to keep a record of their illness or injury, treatment, and actions following the accident. The Orange County workers’ compensation lawyer will need copies of medical records and bills, photos of the injuries, and doctor’s reports after every appointment.

This evidence will be used by the attorney to determine the value of your case, establish a link between the accident and the injuries, prove your willingness to pursue treatment, and increase your chances of obtaining a fair settlement.

Thomas F. Martin, PLC is an award winning work injury lawyer in Orange County, helping injured workers secure the compensation and benefits they deserve. Contact his office today to schedule a consultation and begin your journey to legal justice.
