Employees in Oklahoma who suffer an occupation-related injury or illness can receive workers' compensation, which often helps to avoid lawsuits. The reason it helps avoid lawsuits is that workers' compensation both financially helps the employee and legally protects the employer.
If you are submitting a workers' compensation claim, you want to ensure your rights are protected. This is why it's important to hire a lawyer who is familiar with workers' compensation law in Oklahoma. The right lawyer can make all the difference in recovering the maximum benefits you deserve under the law if you have been injured at work. At the Law Offices of Jeff Martin, our workers' compensation attorneys have the resources and experience to help clients get what they deserve after a workplace injury.
Workers can obtain compensation once their injury makes them unable to earn full wages for three consecutive days or their injury requires medical attention. The amount of compensation is roughly 75% of their earnings per week.
If you are unable to work because of a disability or injury, our firm also can help you obtain benefits through the Supplemental Security Income and Social Security Disability programs.
