Winning a workers’ compensation case requires more than filing paperwork—it demands thorough investigation, compelling evidence, and aggressive advocacy against insurance companies trained to minimize payouts.

Thorough Investigation and Evidence Gathering

Aggressive Negotiation and Representation
Throughout the process, our workers’ compensation lawyers handle all communications with insurance carriers, file timely appeals when claims are denied, and aggressively negotiate for maximum benefits. If your case requires a hearing, we present compelling evidence and expert testimony to prove your claim.

Common Injuries Our Lawyers Have Seen in Work Related Accident Cases
How work accidents occur varies by industry, but certain dangers exist across all workplaces. Our workers’ compensation lawyers have handled cases involving:
- Falls are the leading cause of workplace injuries, whether from ladders, scaffolding, roofs, or simply slipping on wet floors. Our lawyers have represented workers with broken bones, head injuries, and back problems that take months to heal.
- Heavy machinery creates serious risks in factories, construction sites, and warehouses where workers get caught in equipment, struck by moving parts, or crushed between machines. Our workers’ compensation lawyers handle cases involving amputations, severe cuts, and fatal injuries caused by equipment failures.
- Car accidents affect workers who drive for their jobs, such as delivery drivers, salespeople, truckers, and anyone traveling between job sites. Our lawyers fight for workers suffering from whiplash, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord damage.
- Repetitive motion injuries develop over time from performing the same movements repeatedly. Our legal team has seen how years of repetitive work result in injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, and back injuries that insurers often dispute.
- Lifting injuries happen when workers move heavy objects without proper equipment or help. Our workers’ compensation lawyers represent workers suffering from herniated discs and torn muscles caused by unsafe lifting conditions and inadequate training.
Compensation Our Workers’ Comp Lawyers Help You Recover
North Carolina workers’ comp covers several types of benefits when you get hurt on the job. Our lawyers fight to secure:
- Medical treatment comes first. Our attorneys ensure the insurance pays for all reasonable and necessary medical care related to your injury. Coverage includes doctor visits, surgeries, hospital stays, physical therapy, medications, and equipment like crutches or wheelchairs.
- Lost wage benefits replace part of your income while you can’t work. Our workers’ compensation lawyers fight to secure two-thirds of your average weekly wage (though there’s a maximum amount set by state law each year). These payments continue as long as your doctor says you can’t work because of your injury.
- Permanent disability benefits apply when your injury causes lasting problems. If you can never return to your old job, our legal team will pursue vocational rehabilitation to help you learn new skills.
- In the worst cases, when a worker dies from a job injury, our workers’ compensation lawyers help their family recover death benefits, including funeral expenses and ongoing financial support.

Frequently Asked Questions About Workers’ Compensation Claims
What Can I Do if My Workers’ Compensation Claim Is Denied?
Don’t give up if your claim gets denied. Our workers’ compensation lawyers can appeal and overturn the insurance company’s decision. Read the denial letter carefully and act quickly—you have strict deadlines to appeal or lose your rights forever.
Our lawyers will gather evidence that contradicts the denial, obtain witness statements, collect medical records, and document your injury and work duties. Your lawyer will file Form 33 with the North Carolina Industrial Commission to request a hearing before a deputy commissioner.
What’s the Difference Between a Workers’ Compensation Claim and a Third-Party Claim?
Workers’ compensation claims seek benefits from your employer’s insurance after a work injury. Third-party claims are personal injury lawsuits against someone other than your employer who caused your injury. Our lawyers can help you understand whether both apply to your accident.
Workers’ comp pays benefits regardless of fault. Third-party claims require your lawyer to prove someone else caused the accident, but can result in much larger compensation, including full lost wages and pain and suffering.
Can I File a Third-Party Claim While Receiving Workers’ Compensation?
Yes, our lawyers can help you pursue both claims when someone besides your employer caused your work injury. However, the workers’ comp insurer has repayment rights for benefits they’ve already paid if you receive a third-party settlement.
At Dr. Ted Injury Law, our workers’ comp lawyers handle both workers’ comp and third-party claims. We know how to maximize your total recovery while satisfying the insurance company’s reimbursement rights.
