Do I need an attorney?

This would depend on the nature of your case. Let’s say you have sustained injuries such as a bruise or small cut that would heal completely, and the Employer/Insurer have agreed to pay your medical bills. It should not be necessary to have attorney assistance.

Let’s say the injury is of a more serious nature or if your claim is being contested by the Employer/Insurer. You would be well advised to retain the assistance of an attorney. They will assist you in navigating the very complicated claim process. The attorneys of ShugarmanMehring have over 30 years experience representing injured workers in worker’s compensation claims.
