You may have a right to file a Workers’ Comp claim and could be entitled to compensation. That being said, there are several types of claims that can be filed in connection with a work related injury. Depending on what type of claim it is, these kinds of “ancillary” claims may be prosecuted against an employer, its insurance company, or a “third party,” other than the employer.

These “ancillary” claims can include a claim against a third party who caused or contributed to the injury, or who by operation of law had a special duty owed to you that “set up” the injury to occur, whether by negligence, or willful action; A claim that the employer or its insurance company unreasonably denied or delayed the provision of benefits to an injured worker; A claim that the employer discriminated or took adverse action, or harassed an injured worker because of the injury, for pursuing a claim, or because of a disability; Or a claim that the employer’s serious and willful action caused the injury.

The odds are very high that you will benefit by using a Sacramento Workers Comp Lawyer if you have a work related injury, especially if you hire one from the very beginning. It doesn’t cost you any more than if you hire one later on, but having the proper guidance from the get-go tends to be more beneficial. The rules and regulations of the Workers’ Compensation system are very complicated. Employers and insurance companies spend much time and money to minimize their own expenses when they are dealing with a work related injury. Choosing an evaluating physician is a crucial step in the process, and familiarity with the evaluators is essential in obtaining a fair or even favorable evaluation.

When it comes to ancillary claims, they can provide significant benefits to the injured worker beyond and in addition to benefits provided through the regular Workers’ Compensation benefit package. They can even provide protection to injured workers from adverse action, harassment, or discrimination that may be taken against them by an employer. It’s safe to say that the presence of a Sacramento Workers Comp Lawyer will often give the employer or insurance company an extra reason to follow the dictates of the law.
