Workers' Compensation Attorney in Santa Clarita

Lawyer for Work Accident and Injury Claims

Workers' compensation is a required insurance program that pays for the medical bills and lost wages of employees who are injured and/or disabled from work or who have work-related injuries, occupational diseases, or industrial accidents or illnesses. Even if the injury did not occur while at work, if it is work-related, workers' compensation will cover the costs of medical treatment. Not only will workers' compensation pay for medical expenses incurred by an individual for a work-related injury, but it may also replace a portion of the worker's lost wages if the injury or illness caused the individual to lose income. Medical care covered by California Workers' Compensation insurance claims include:

Medical, surgical, and hospital services
Dental services
Crutches and other orthopedic devices
Hearing aids
Chiropractic treatment
Physical therapy
Nursing care
Prescribed medications
