Workers Compensation

Jackson, Mississippi Workers Compensation Lawyers

When it comes to workers' compensation, do you know your rights?

Located in Jackson, Mississippi, the workers' compensation attorneys at Gill, Ladner & Priest, PLLC have a combined 35 years of experience assisting clients with their workers' compensation claims (sometimes referred to as workers' comp or workman's compensation). Our attorneys are able to assess your situation and determine the best course of action to take in order to gain the best possible results in your workers' compensation case.

Workplace accidents and on-the-job injuries can prevent you from working and supporting your family. You have a right to treatment and compensation for your lost wages and medical expenses.

Believe it or not, many insurance companies take advantage of employees who make Mississippi workers' comp claims. Fraud and bad faith can make it impossible for you to obtain workers' compensation even if you are entitled to it.

Do not be tricked into giving up what is rightfully yours. Report your injury immediately to your supervisor or employer, and fill out the necessary documentation in order to receive benefits.

If you believe you are not receiving full compensation or have been harassed about the true nature of your injuries, let us help you defend yourself and gain the benefits you deserve.

You May Be Entitled to Additional Compensation

If you were hurt on the job or at the workplace, you may be entitled to more compensation than is covered by workers' compensation. Depending on the circumstances of your accident, it is possible that another company may be obligated to compensate you for your injuries. For example, if you are injured in a construction accident that was caused by a dangerous or defective product, then you may be entitled to additional compensation from the product's manufacturer.

At Gil, Ladner & Priest, PLLC, we have the expertise to assist you with both, your workers' compensation claim and, if appropriate, your personal injury claim.
