Answer:

Do I Need a Workers' Compensation Lawyer if Medical Care is Already Provided? We often speak to first responders who ask why they should hire an attorney when the medical care is already being provided through workers’ comp. The answer is they may not know what benefits are out there and what they’re eligible for. There may be reimbursement for mileage that they’re not getting; they may be paying for prescriptions that they should not be; there may be impairment benefits that have never been paid or underpaid. It is one of the most common mistakes that are made by adjusters on claims, not intentionally, but they underpay benefits that are available to the first responders in Florida. If you don’t know what’s out there, you don’t know what you’re missing. As they say, you don’t know what you don’t know. Please call us at Oliver and Fox. We’d be very happy to assist you in evaluating and making sure you’re receiving all the benefits that you’re entitled to.
