Personal Injury Attorney
Compensation
Oregon was one of the first states to enact a worker’s compensation law. Today this law is a very complicated system to compensate employees who have been injured or who have suffered medical problems from workplace dangers. That’s why you need an attorney like Jean Fischer at Lakepoint Law firm to protect your rights and navigate through the system to get the benefits you rightfully deserve.
The paperwork requirements, deadlines and complex rules can lead to confusion and frustration. And a work injury may place your job and finances at risk. At Lakepoint, we know the paperwork, the insurance companies and the hearing system. We can help navigate your claim to insure that you get the benefits to which you are entitled. We keep you informed of what your options are as your claim progresses and stand with you through each proceeding, whether it be a hearing or a settlement conference.
From the moment that you fill out a claim form, Oregon law offers you certain protections and sets forth requirements for asserting and obtaining those protections. You will receive letters and forms containing language that you do not fully understand. We can answer your questions and assist you in meeting legal requirements, so that you get the benefits you are entitled to.
You are covered for workers’ compensation from the first minute you step on the job, and your benefits for a claim can last for your lifetime. You can receive medical treatment wherever you live, even if you move away from Oregon. If you are seriously disabled, you may qualify for retraining to enter a new career. While you are off work recovering from an accident or illness, you may be paid compensation for lost wages - tax free - and when your medical condition stabilizes you may be entitled to permanent disability compensation.
