Workers' Compensation

Allentown Workers' Compensation Attorney

Benefits for Injured Workers in Easton, Bethlehem & the Lehigh Valley

In Pennsylvania and across the United States, workers in virtually every field are covered by workers’ compensation laws. These laws were put in place to provide a system that would offer benefits to workers who sustain on-the-job injuries or are diagnosed with occupational illnesses. Workers’ compensation replaces lost wages and covers medical costs associated with work-related injuries and also provides death benefits to families when workers lose their lives in workplace accidents.

Have you been injured at work? Although you may be rightfully entitled to workers’ compensation, you may run into difficulties in applying for and obtaining benefits. An Allentown workers’ compensation lawyer at Knafo Law Offices can help you through the application process and can help with an appeal if your claim has been denied.

We represent injured workers in workers’ comp claims across Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, and the entire Lehigh Valley area. For a free consultation, call (610) 756-1098!

Common Types of Work Injuries

There are many work-related injuries, illnesses, and accidents that can leave a worker unable to work for a period of time. We can take on work injury claims of all kinds and will be happy to discuss your specific case with you to determine how to move forward with a worker’s comp claim process.

Some of the leading causes and types of work injuries include:

  • Falls from heights
  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Overexertion/heavy lifting injuries
  • Repetitive motion injuries
  • Work-related auto accidents
  • Electrocution and electrical injuries
  • Falling object injuries
  • Injuries caused by heavy machinery

Whether you have an administrative position in an office, work on an assembly line in a factory, or are out working on construction sites, you have the right to compensation if you suffer a work-related injury. Our Allentown work injury lawyers are here to help you recover the benefits you deserve.

Workers’ Compensation Benefits

Workers’ compensation is a no-fault system designed to provide certain specific benefits to injured workers. Because it is a no-fault system, you do not need to prove that your employer or anyone else was negligent in order to collect benefits; in exchange, you cannot sue your employer directly. Additionally, your benefits are somewhat more limited than the compensation you could recover in a third-party personal injury claim.
