    Workplace injuries can turn your life upside down. Suddenly you can’t work, bills are piling up, and you’re dealing with pain and uncertainty about your future. The workers’ compensation system is supposed to help—but too often, claims are denied or benefits are cut short.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I be fired for filing a workers’ comp claim?

    It’s illegal for your employer to retaliate against you for filing a legitimate workers’ compensation claim. If this happens, you may have additional legal remedies.

    What if my claim is denied?

    Don’t give up. Many legitimate claims are initially denied. I’ll help you appeal and fight for the benefits you deserve.

    Can I see my own doctor?

    In South Carolina, your employer typically gets to choose the treating physician. However, there are exceptions and ways to request a change. Let’s discuss your situation.
