Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a workers’ comp claim?
In Georgia, you must report the injury to your employer within 30 days. After that, you generally have one year to file a formal claim. But don’t wait — early action makes a big difference.
Can I choose my own doctor?
Not always. In Georgia, your employer may provide a panel of doctors. You must choose from that list unless no panel was given or special exceptions apply. We can help you navigate this.
What if my claim was denied?
We can request a hearing before a judge, gather evidence, and fight for the benefits you’re owed. Denials are common — but they’re not the end of the road.
How much will I get each week?
Workers’ comp typically pays two-thirds of your average weekly wage, up to a maximum set by Georgia law. This doesn’t cover everything — but it helps while you recover.
Can I be fired for filing a workers’ comp claim?
It’s illegal to retaliate against someone for filing a claim. If you were punished or fired, we’ll help you protect your rights.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
Nothing up front. We work on contingency and only get paid if we win your case or reach a settlement.
