Ryan Zavodnick is an experienced attorney who has handled a wide variety of personal injury matters including, slip and fall accidents, motor vehicle accidents, products liability accidents and work place accidents. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, over 1.1 million workers in the United States had to take time off of work due to an on-the-job injury or illness in 2013 alone. When an individual has to miss work, they often lose out on income relied upon by their households to pay bills and basic expenses. The lost wages are usually in addition to the costs incurred by the worker for medical treatment for their condition. When an injury or illness is caused by occupational factors, the employer should be responsible for helping to support the worker during their recovery. Fortunately for injured workers and their families, the law in Delaware requires all public and private sector employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance if they employ any workers. Workers’ comp insurance is intended to provide medical benefits, replacement wages, and more for employees who suffer work-related diseases, injuries, or other medical issues. If you believe you are entitled to this type of benefits, an experienced workers’ compensation lawyer in Delaware can help to ensure you receive the maximum amount you deserve.
