Am I Eligible for Workers' Comp?

Am I Eligible for Workers' Comp Benefits?

Ask an Experienced Atlanta Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Not all injured employees who file a claim are guaranteed benefits for their injuries. Workers' compensation is an insurance program that is intended to only compensate individuals who sustain work-related injuries. For employees who do qualify, they can recover restitution for lost wages and medical bills regardless of who was to blame for their work injuries.


Want to learn more about your eligibility for worker's compensation? Our office offers a no-cost evaluation of your case, so call (888) 665-7699 today to discuss the nature of your claim.


Workers' Compensation Eligibility in Georgia

In order to qualify for workers' comp benefits, there are three requirements you must meet:

  1. The company or person you work for has three or more employees regularly in service
  2. You must be a legal employee of the person or company you work for
  3. The injury you are claiming must be work-related

Your injury does not have to actually occur at the workplace, so long as it is still work-related. If you are injured while on a business trip, running a business errand, or at a business conference, you may still be eligible to collect workers' comp benefits. If you are unsure whether you are eligible for workers' comp benefits, speak with an Atlanta workplace injury lawyer from our firm today.

    "The most humble person I have met in this profession and cares about the overall outcome."
    I was injured in the apocalypse snow storm of Atlanta in 2014, I never intended or thought I would need an attorney to assist me with all the ongoing paperwork, needed to get me through this long and draining process. In the process I was not only drained of going to therapy 5 days a week 3 hours a day, groggy from pain pills, and really no in my right mind to make good decisions, I wanted this over and done with, but when I felt being pushed into the wrong direction by insurance company, I had no choice but to start my search I logged in on a Saturday and begin emailing attorneys to see if anyone could help me. On a Sunday Mr. Kaleita called we discussed the case not even being a client yet it was an immediate trust and connection, he understood my frustration and since that day I felt he has been a guardian angel to help me in every step of the way. Even when I thought we were completed, he was such a thorough person, he not only checked once but twice and always found something overall I feel he has become my greatest attorney yet, as well as a mutual friend..the most humble person I have met in this profession and cares about the overall outcome. I would recommend him to anyone. No matter what matter you may have he has a resource in the legal field to help you get your answers. Very knowledgeable in his field
