Workers' Compensation Benefits for Employees Injured on the Job
Workers' compensation benefits are designed to help you recover lost wages, medical expenses and any temporary or permanent disability that results from on-the-job injuries. Obtaining these benefits is not always easy, however, and having an experienced lawyer on your side can help you file a successful claim for the compensation that you need.
Founded in 1949, the law firm of Eckberg, Lammers, Briggs, Wolff & Vierling, PLLP, helps clients in the East Twin Cities Metro area of Minnesota and clients in Western Wisconsin seek workers' compensation benefits after a workplace injury. If the injury was the result of a third party's negligence, such as the manufacturer or designer of a defective product, it may also be possible to pursue a claim against that party for additional benefits. We will thoroughly review your situation to determine what benefits you may be entitled to and will pursue those benefits with confidence.
