| Workers'
Compensation
New Hampshire law has recognized the needs of
its injured workers. The
law requires every employer to obtain worker’s compensation
insurance (or be approved as a self-insurer) to cover claims made
by their injured workers. If
you are injured in an accident or suffer from an occupational
disease at work, the law says you are entitled to receive the
following benefits:
Lifelong Medical Treatment
Cash
Payments While you Recover and Cannot Work
Vocational
Rehabilitation
Cash
Payments for Permanent Disability
Additional
Disability Benefits if your Condition Worsens
Death
Benefit
Lump
Sum Settlements (In Appropriate Cases)

WARNING:
DON’T
DO ANYTHING UNTIL YOU SPEAK TO A LAWYER.
Handling
an injury claim takes experience…what to say, what not to say;
what to sign, if anything; when to attempt to settle; how much
your claim is worth, are some of the things that a skilled and
experienced professional can evaluate.
Our legal system allows you to recover full and fair money
compensation for your injuries.
Yet, each year many people recover far less compensation
than they are entitled to receive. Please
don’t let this happen to you!
Protect yourself by speaking to an attorney!
There are rigid time deadlines which exist, in which to
make a claim for different types of injuries.
The failure to act timely could become a barrier to your
right to recover!
(Warning:
Changes in the law concerning damages occur occasionally.
You should consult with an Attorney with respect to these
changes.)
