Workers’ Compensation Covered Illnesses and Injuries

Answer:

The question almost always comes up when people are injured on the job: What kind of injuries are covered in Arizona under workman’s compensation? The short answer that Daniel Garza, our workers’ comp attorney, will tell you with that is any injury that is related to the course and scope of your employment is covered. That’s the good news. Now, the reason why – another reason why you want to be talking with Daniel Garza is because he’ll also say but the insurance carrier may have a very different opinion – and their doctor has a very different opinion about whether your injury occurred during your work or you had the problem before and just are discovering it right now.

There are all kinds of reasons that a company doctor can use to deny your claim and say you’re fine. Go back to work even if you’re in excruciating pain. If there’s any situation like that, call us and talk to Daniel Garza, our workers’ comp attorney. He’ll give you individual analysis. He’ll give you free advice about your case. Remember, the call’s free, the information’s free, and the one who’s going to benefit the most by making that call is you.
