A workplace injury can rob you of your income, your health, and your sense of security. While workers' compensation provides some protection, it is often inadequate for serious injuries. GroverLawKC helps Kansas City workers explore all available sources of compensation for on-the-job injuries.
Workers' Compensation in Missouri and Kansas
Both Missouri and Kansas have workers' compensation systems that provide medical care and partial wage replacement to employees injured on the job, regardless of fault. However, workers' compensation does not compensate you for pain and suffering, and the wage replacement is often far less than your actual income loss. The process can also be difficult to navigate without legal assistance.
An employer or insurer may dispute the extent of your injuries, challenge your claim for certain treatments, or try to settle quickly for less than your claim is worth. Our firm can guide you through the workers' compensation process and fight for maximum benefits.
Third-Party Claims for Workplace Injuries
In many workplace injury cases, a party other than your employer contributed to the accident — a subcontractor, a product manufacturer, a property owner, or a delivery driver. These third-party claims are not limited by workers' compensation rules and can provide full compensation including pain and suffering and loss of quality of life.
Identifying and pursuing third-party claims in addition to workers' compensation is one of the most important ways our firm adds value for injured workers.
