Work-Related Car Accidents

Experienced Miami Workers’ Compensation Law Firm Dedicated to Recovering Benefits on Behalf of Workers Injured in Auto Accidents

If you've been in a car accident while on the job, you might be feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what to do next. Work-related car accidents can be particularly stressful because they involve not only physical injuries but also the complexity of navigating workers' compensation claims. At Friedman Rodman Frank & Estrada, we understand what you're going through and are here to help you understand your rights and options.

Work-related car accidents occur when you are driving or riding in a vehicle for work purposes. This could include making deliveries, traveling between job sites, or even driving to a work-related meeting. If you’re injured in such an accident, you may be eligible for workers' compensation benefits, which can help cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other costs related to your injury. However, accidents that occur during your normal commute are typically not considered work-related with some exceptions.

Workers’ Compensation Benefits After a Workplace Car Accident

Workers' compensation benefits are designed to support employees who are injured on the job. In the case of a work-related car accident, these benefits can provide important financial support during your recovery process. Workers’ compensation benefits may include:

Medical Expenses: Workers' compensation can cover the cost of medical treatment related to your car accident injuries. This includes doctor visits, hospital stays, surgeries, medications, and physical therapy.

Lost Wages: If your injuries prevent you from working, you can receive compensation for lost wages. This helps ensure that you can focus on your recovery without the added stress of financial worries.

Disability Benefits: If your injuries result in a temporary or permanent disability, you may be eligible for additional benefits. These can help compensate for the injury’s impact on your ability to work in the future.

It's important to report your accident to your employer as soon as possible and to seek medical attention right away. Prompt action not only ensures that you get the necessary treatment but also helps in filing a timely workers' compensation claim.

Carolyn Frank and her firm represented me on a workers compensation injury case, under the defense base act. She did a excellent job from the moment I contacted her until 3 years later the case was settled. Every benefit I was entitled too, Carolyn fought hard to secure. E-mails and phone calls were always returned promptly. Definitely 5 star rating. Daniel

I can't express how grateful I am for Elizabeth Estrada, attorney, and Elizabeth Cantin, secretary, for all the hard work in order to defend me in my time of need. My lawyer and secretary spent time explaining each step and what was to be expected. Because of this I felt a part of the whole process and understood what was going on. Thank you so much for all your hard work!
