HOW WE CAN HELP AFTER A WORKPLACE INJURY
Employers have a responsibility to provide a safe work environment for their employees. Unfortunately, accidents are inevitable, especially if you work in the manufacturing, transportation, or construction industries. In addition to providing a safe work environment, most employers in the state of Florida are also responsible for carrying workers’ compensation coverage for their employees.

However, sometimes a workers’ compensation claim is denied when an employer disputes a workplace injury or illness. In other cases, a doctor appointed by an employer determines a worker is able to return to work even though their injuries make it hard to do so. If this has happened to you, the attorneys at Scott J. Sternberg & Associates, P.A. can help in a number of ways.
