Reasons to Hire an Attorney to Assist With an Atlanta Work Comp Claim

There are several reasons you might need an Atlanta workers' compensation attorney to represent you following a workplace injury. First, there are deadlines for filing a claim and notifying your employer of your injury, and your claim may be barred if you miss one of those deadlines. Further, an employer or insurance company might not voluntarily provide you all of the benefits to which you are entitled under the Georgia Workers’ Compensation Act. Having a knowledgeable attorney handle your claim helps ensure that your rights are protected, and ensures you receive maximum recovery allowed under the law. If you have any doubt as to whether you need a lawyer to assist you with your work injury claim, contact Atlanta work injury attorney Brian H. Sumrall at (404) 857-3835 or visit
