Award-Winning Workers’ Compensation Attorneys

If you’ve been injured while on the job, you may be entitled to compensation and coverage! However, many employees simply file a workers’ comp claim and let their insurance handle the coverage. What many people fail to realize is that employers’ insurance company is not your legal representative – and they won’t always explain your rights or even ensure that you receive the appropriate care or benefits.

That’s why we strongly urge clients to seek outside legal assistance with any workers’ comp claim in order to secure the maximum coverage and compensation for workplace injuries.

Pick someone who is on your side. Our award-winning workers’ compensation attorneys are here to help! Van Camp, Meacham & Newman, PLLC was recently selected as one of the 10 Best Law Firms for Client Satisfaction in North Carolina by The American Institute of Legal Counsel, Workers’ Compensation Division. Our attorneys are experienced in all areas of workers’ compensation law, and are there for clients every step of the way.

Securing Workers’ Comp Benefits

Navigating the complexities of a workplace injury can be overwhelming. What’s more – your employer’s insurance company does not always explain your rights or ensure that you receive the appropriate compensation, care, or benefits.

If you have been injured at work, North Carolina Workers’ Compensation laws mandate that you are entitled to benefits. These benefits are often available even when your act or omission contributed to or caused your injury and can include monetary payments while you are out of work, payment of all related medical bills, reimbursement for mileage to and from your doctor appointments, and payment for medications. Workers may also receive wage replacement benefits to compensate for lost income during their recovery period or if their injury results in a permanent disability that affects their earning capacity.

After filing a workers’ comp claim, it’s in your best interest to contact an experienced workers’ compensation attorney to ensure that you receive the benefits and care you deserve.

At Van Camp, Meacham & Newman, we have three primary goals when representing an injured worker:

First

We make sure that the injured worker is receiving all of the benefits to which he/she is entitled. If you are not receiving your rightful benefits, or worker's compensation isn't paying your medical bills, action is taken immediately to bring the matter before the North Carolina Industrial Commission.

Second

At the appropriate stages of your claim we explain all of your options clearly so you can make the most informed choice about how to resolve your claim.

Third

We communicate with our clients. This means we return phone calls promptly, schedule appointments when necessary, and are available and accessible to address any concerns you have regarding your claim.

Your Recovery Is Our Concern

Our work begins by making sure clients get proper medical treatment and that compensation is paid in a timely matter. To make sure that that happens, we will help in submitting all of the forms required by the North Carolina Industrial Commission (an administrative board that oversees workman’s comp claims).

After those things have been done, we begin the work of preparing our clients for their initial hearing before the commission (attorneys may file papers, but do not represent employees before the board unless a workers’ compensation claim goes to an appeal).

Affordable Worker’s Compensation Counsel

We handle workers’ compensation claims on a contingency basis. In addition, attorney fees and expenses must be approved by the Industrial Commission and you will not be responsible for paying anything until a settlement is reached and your final disability rating determined.
