Repetitive Stress Injuries and Workers' Compensation Claims
Sometimes, there is not a single "accident" that causes your injury. Some injuries are due to repetitive motions performed while at work. One example of a repetitive stress injury is a diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome. Just because there was no "accident" does not prevent you from filing your workers' comp claim with the Industrial Commission. Repetitive injuries can still be covered.
At the Phoenix-based Crossman Law Offices, P.C., we make workers' compensation work for the workers. For more than 60 years combined, we have been successful in obtaining benefits for our clients despite the obstacles that insurance companies have thrown in our path.
Our father-and–daughter–attorney team is on the side of the worker. Contact our Arizona law firm for a FREE PHONE CONSULTATION at 888-841-1197 to discuss your potential workers' comp claim directly with a lawyer.
Notify Your Supervisor of a Repetitive Injury or Other Injury
After an injury, notify a supervisor about your problem. Be sure to tell the supervisor that you are not only suffering from repetitive strain, but that you believe it is related to your job. See a medical specialist and say that you think your injury is related to your work.
Stay on Top of Deadlines With a Lawyer's Help
You must stay on top of many time-sensitive deadlines, even if you have notified your supervisor. If you received a Notice of Claim Status, your protest time is limited. Call our office and discuss the problem with someone who does this type of law full-time.
Our attorneys will speak with you over the phone and help you understand whether you have a case, or what your next step should be. If you have a condition that has worsened due to the repetitive nature of your work, you may have a new claim or may be eligible to reopen an old injury claim.
