Ways A Boston Workers Comp Lawyer Can Help You

Ways A Boston Workers Comp Lawyer Can Help You
No one ever wants to get hurt at work.  These accidents can cause very serious personal injuries.  They can also cause missed time from work, medical bills, and a boatload of frustrations.  It oftentimes makes sense to hire a lawyer to represent you and your legal interests.  Here are some ways a Boston workers comp lawyer can help you.
First, your lawyer will be experienced with these cases. He will be familiar with all the paperwork that you probably have never seen before that may be sent to you by the insurance company.  He will also be familiar with the legal process surrounding work injury claims in Massachusetts and will also know his way around the court system that hears these disputes which is the Massachusetts Department of Industrial Accidents.
Next, your lawyer will be able to fight any attempts by the insurance company to deny your claim, or to discontinue (stop) or modify (reduce) your weekly checks.  That is important because the last thing you want is to not have legal representation in these situations protecting you.
A workers comp lawyer also will be able to, under the right conditions, negotiate a lump sum settlement for you.  A lump sum is one-time payment by the insurance company that will pay you one sum of money, instead of paying you weekly benefit checks.  This type of settlement needs an attorney’s expertise to effectively and successfully negotiate.
