Workers’ Comp Assanti & Associates has handled hundreds of workers’ compensation cases. Many client of the firm who were injured in accidents were also at work at the time of the incident. They are then able to proceed with two separate claims for recovery of injuries.
The benefits of proceeding through he workers’ compensation system as well as a civil claims process for personal injuries are that the worker obtains immediate temporary disability. This means that the worker will not lose any wages as a result of the injury. During this time, the worker seeds medical attention in accordance with the current workers’ compensation laws. Our firm then concurrently files suit and makes claims against the responsible parties in order to recover for the injured workers general damages that are not recoverable in the workers’ compensation system.
“I fell off a roof while working on the job. I suffered almost $100,000 in medical expenses. Initially my employer denied that I was even on the job, and denied my claim entirely. I felt abandoned and alone. I called Assanti & Associates and they were able to obtain continued medical treatment and rehabilitation immediately while they litigated against the employer. They won an award on my behalf.” Salvador Nicacio
