Minnesota law forbids most employees from suing their employers after being hurt at work, instead requiring them to seek benefits through the Workers’ Compensation system. Minnesota Workers’ Compensation benefits can pay for your medical bills and lost wages, so you can focus on getting back to work.

Depending on your case, you may be able to file a Personal Injury claim for additional damages against a corporation or third party that contributed to your injuries, such as a defective equipment manufacturer or a negligent contractor.

Contact us to learn more about the compensation you may be eligible for.

Even if you’re already receiving Workers’ Compensation, you may also be entitled to:

• Long Term Disability

• Social Security Disability
  Benefits provided by Social Security Disability can help you pay your bills when a serious medical condition keeps you from doing the work you did before.
• Third-Party Liability Compensation
  You may be able to file a claim against parties other than your employer for damages not available through Workers’ Compensation coverage, such as pain and suffering.
