Claiming Your Benefits

Workers’ compensation is a mandatory insurance program in Georgia, providing payment for medical expenses and lost wages, as well as any temporary or permanent disabilities a worker has incurred when they’ve been injured on the job.

Eligibility for workers comp involves:

  • Being an employee of a company that has workers’ comp insurance
  • Having suffered an injury that occurred at work or as a result of job-related duties

In many cases you can still receive benefits, even if you were at fault, as workers’ compensation is a no-fault system.

Independent Contractors

Even if you’re employed as an independent contractor and receive a 1099 for taxes, you may still be entitled to workers’ comp benefits.
Are You Eligible?

The workers’ compensation system generally provides an exclusive remedy for employees against their employers and co-workers, meaning an injured employee cannot ordinarily file a personal injury action against their employer, even if the employer was at-fault for the accident. However, there are exceptions to this rule.

In Georgia, workers injured on the job due to the negligence of a third party other than their employer can normally pursue a personal injury claim against the at-fault party in addition to obtaining workers’ compensation benefits. Third parties can include:

  • At-fault parties that contributed to the accident other than your employer
  • The makers of a defective piece of equipment
  • Negligent property owners, and more

Our attorneys will examine all avenues of compensation when determining your legal options. In personal injury cases, we pursue compensation on behalf of our clients, including:

  • Compensation for medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Pain and Suffering
  • Punitive damages, when applicable

What if other parties besides my employer were responsible for my injuries?
