Fired for getting hurt? Not being paid? We can help. / ¿Despedido por salir herido? ¿No le pagan? Nosotros podemos ayudar.
We work for people who work. When people get injured on the job, we make sure they get the workers’ compensation benefits their employers have agreed to provide. These benefits come in the form of medical treatment and disability benefits. If you get hurt, we make sure you get the best medical care possible and that your bills are paid.
Sometimes employers will fire someone for seeking workers’ compensation benefits. Workers’ compensation benefits are protected by law. We successfully represent clients who have been retaliated against.
Employers will sometimes look for ways to rip off employees. They may illegally refuse to pay overtime. They may ask employees to do work “off the clock.” This is wage theft, and it is illegal. We represent workers who are owed wages.
We work for people who work. Our firm works hard. We believe people who work deserve fair and dignified treatment. If your employer fails to provide you with workers compensation benefits, fails to pay you fairly, or fires you for asking for these things, we’re here for you.
