What Should I do If I am Injured in a Work Related Accident?

The law offices of Foran & Foran handles workers compensation throughout Maryland.

1. After the accident, immediately notify your supervisor of the facts of the accident and your injury. Your claim may be barred if you do not give proper notice to your employer.
   
   
2. Gather as much information as possible and bring it our office including photos of the scene, witness information and all medical providers names and addresses.
   
   
3. If injured, immediately go to the emergency room or to your private physician for proper medical treatment. Do not prolong treatment just for purposes of a legal case. Once you are feeling better, or your physician recommends discharge, please call us so that we can obtain the final reports from your doctor. Make sure that each medical provider realizes that your bill will be paid by the workers compensation insurance carrier for your employer.
   
   
4. Our workers compensation lawyers will need to know the full extent of your compensation including all benefits and tips. Your employer will present and average weekly wage figure to the Workers Compensation Commission based upon your earnings. We will need to verify that this figure is correct.
