Little Rock Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Representing Injured Workers in Arkansas

Have you been injured on the job? You are entitled to file a workers' compensation claim for lost wages and medical treatment expenses. If you were injured at work due to the negligence of someone other than your employer, you may also be able to pursue a personal injury lawsuit against the responsible party.

A Little Rock workers' compensation attorney affiliated with The Brad Hendricks Law Firm can help protect your rights. Experienced in both workers' compensation law and personal injury, we know how to use the law to put together convincing claims and cases that get results. We understand the nuances of workplace injury accidents, and can apply our knowledge and skills to help ensure you are compensated to the fullest extent of the law for those injuries in the area of the law more commonly known as "workers' comp."

Handling All Aspects of a Workers' Compensation Claim

Our law firm represents injured Arkansas workers against private industry, federal, state and local government employers and their workers' compensation insurers. We handle all aspects of a work accident injury claim, from the initial workers' compensation application to workers' compensation appeals, if necessary. Much of work involves dealing with whether our clients' injury qualifies as "on the job," and disputes concerning the benefits to which they may be entitled.

Additionally, we can provide general legal advice for questions such as:

• How do I report a workplace injury?
• When do my benefits expire?
• Can I get treatment from my own doctor?
• Can I receive benefits even if I return to work?
• What resources are available for job training?
• Can I collect workers' compensation benefits for a toxic injury or repetitive motion injury, such as carpal tunnel?

See Workers' Compensation FAQ for answers to common workplace accident questions.

Third-Party Injury Lawsuits

Arkansas employees cannot file a personal injury lawsuit against their employers for workplace injuries suffered. However, if someone other than their employer is responsible for the accident, injured workers may be able to file a third-party injury claim. For example, if a construction worker falls from a scaffold, he or she may be able to file a personal injury claim against the manufacturer if it was found that the scaffold design was defective.

We do not charge an attorney fee for personally consulting with you about your workplace accident case. We can help determine if you have a personal injury case in addition to being able to file for workers' compensation benefits.
