Atlanta Catastrophic Injury Attorney
Have you sustained a catastrophic injury in the workplace?
Catastrophic injuries have the capability of causing long term pain and suffering for the recipient of such injuries. They cause physical, emotional and financial hardship on the family of the victim as well, as it is the family that ends up taking care of the injured person in all aspects of their life. It is a terrible thing to watch a loved one suffer while going through the rehabilitation process.
Medical expenses for a catastrophic injury can run very high. The workers' compensation benefits offered by your employer's insurance company may not be enough to take care of your ongoing needs. An
Atlanta workers' comp attorney from the Law Office of Judy Kim, P.C. has experience negotiating with insurers to secure full benefits and compensation for your workplace catastrophic injuries.
There may be situations where your employer was severely negligent in his duties, and his or her actions were instrumental in causing your injuries. There may also be workplace related "third parties", such as property owners, contractors, and equipment manufacturers whose negligent actions caused you harm. Our firm can pursue damages against these individuals as a separate case from your workers' comp benefits.
