You developed COVID-19 at work. Should you file a work comp claim? / Desarrolló Covid-19 en el trabajo. ¿Debería presentar una reclamación de compensación de trabajo?

The answer is, maybe…but there is something you must know before you file (at least with us):  You have to have been really, really sick.  Having symptoms for a while and self-quarantining for 2 weeks isn’t nearly enough, nor should it be.  A lot of workers will get sick, stay home and get better, and that’s a good ending to a bad situation.  It is our position that we won’t file claims for those folks.  Others might, we won’t.  But, if you were sick enough to warrant serious medical care then we want to help.  Many of the service workers who have or will get sick do not have health insurance.  We can help get those bills paid.  Some folks will be out of work for a few months; we can help.  Some will have serious, lasting health consequences.  We can help with that as well.  If you are a serious Covid-19 sufferer and want help, call us.  If not, we hope you have a speedy and complete recovery.  Keith Short and Associates: 618-254-0055.  www.siltrial.com
