Workers' Compensation

Indiana Workers' Compensation Claim Lawyer

Most Indiana employees who become injured on the job are eligible to receive workers' compensation benefits. These benefits can include medical care, rehabilitation, and income benefits.

Weekly payments of about two thirds of your weekly wages are to covered employees who were injured on the job and can't return to work for seven days or more.

The process of receiving workers' compensation seems simple: You alert your employer of your injury or occupational-related condition, consult with a doctor your employer chooses, and follow the doctor's recommendations. The weekly checks should start coming within three weeks of your injury report.

However, receiving the benefits you deserve is frequently a struggle. Sometimes valid workers' compensation claims are denied. Or the doctor may say you are ready to go back to work, when you are still too injured.

If you are had difficulty with a workers' compensation claim, please contact an attorney at Allen Law Offices in Valparaiso or Merrillville, Indiana, today to arrange a free consultation and case evaluation. We have been helping injured workers receive the benefits they deserve since 1995. We represent injured workers on a contingency basis, so you will pay no up front fees and not attorney's fees unless we win benefits for you.

Should I get an attorney?
"The Board always recommends that you consult an attorney if you are contemplating disputing your claim or if you feel that your rights under the Worker’s Compensation Act are not being upheld." That's a direct quote from the Workers' Compensation Board of Indiana's web site.

Our experienced attorneys can not only help you receive workers' comp benefits, we will also review your case to determine whether you can pursue a third party claim against someone other than your employer to receive additional compensation. If you were injured on the job by a defective piece of machinery, for example, we could seek compensation from the machine's manufacturer.
