What to Do If You Have a Work Injury in Miami
As a Florida work injury lawyer, we cannot stress enough to take action to protect yourself after an accident happens. After you are hurt in a work accident, take the following steps to protect your right to seek compensation.
- Alert your employer. Tell your employer that you were hurt on the job. Ask where you should go for medical care. In the event of a life-threatening situation, do not do anything besides call 911 for help and follow the dispatcher’s instructions. Then, follow up and notify your employer as soon as possible.
- Seek treatment. Go to the doctor right away. Avoid delaying getting care, since that could put your case at risk.
- Notify your employer of your doctor’s instructions. If you cannot work for a period of time, do not do so. Get follow-up care as instructed.
If you are hurt on the job in Miami, it is best to seek legal help as soon as possible. You can expect us to be there for you right away. In most situations, you have 30 days from the date of the injury to inform your employer, but you likely should do so much sooner.
