Worker's Compensation

Whether you work in  an office, in a laboratory, or a construction site, injuries on the job  occur.  When they do, they can disrupt your work and your life.  Depending on how serious the injury, you and your family could be  substantially impacted years to come.

As a result, the  North Carolina Workers’ Compensation Act was passed into law to protect  workers and provide benefits to those who are injured, or to the  families of those fatally injured, on the job.   The Act, however, can  be rather complicated. Accordingly, if you have been injured on the job,  or a loved one has suffered an injury that resulted in death, you need  the help of a qualified North Carolina Workers’ Compensation attorney to  guide you through the process.

RTP Law is here to  help you.  We handle all matters involving the North Carolina Workers’  Compensation Act, and we care deeply about getting our clients the  benefits – and justice – they deserve.  

What Types of Benefits Does North Carolina Workers’ Compensation provide Compensation Provide?

Given that an on-the-job injury or  occupational disease can result in the need for medical treatment, lost  wages, and even death benefits, the N.C. Workers’ Compensation Act  provides for a variety of benefits. 

Those benefits include:

•         Medical Benefits
•         Payment for Lost Wages
•         Compensation for Permanent Loss of body part, either total or partial
•         Vocational Rehabilitation
•         Death Benefits
•         Lifetime Disability Benefits

Each  benefit is different, and you may or may not qualify for each type.   However, the range of benefits is designed to cover all types of work  injuries.  We at RTP Law and our associated workers comp attorneys have an in-depth understanding of all of the benefits above.
