Thrilled with professional results
Just a lot of New Year's Joy. I am so thrilled with the expertise and professional results with Sexton Law Firm. I had never needed an attorney. But with my injury, I inquired this firm to represent me. This is a generational company of 30 years. On spot and so very professional, wove my questions and concerns into a wonderful tapestry of lawful truths. I have learned a lot from the Sexton Law Firm, and also was put at ease in the process of my legal rights. I strongly recommend THE SEXTON LAW FIRM. 100%. Thanks to them, I am at peace for my 'Workers Comp case'. Most sincerely, Tanya Lenmark.

This depends on your state's regulations and your employer's workers' compensation insurance plan. Some plans require you to see a network provider initially. If you wish to see your own doctor, make sure to verify this with your employer or workers' compensation insurer.
Do I pay taxes on workers' compensation benefits?
Generally, workers' compensation benefits are not subject to federal or state income taxes. However, specific situations may vary, especially if you're receiving other benefits like Social Security. You should consult with a tax advisor for complete advice on your individual circumstances.
What should I do after a work injury?
If you're injured at work, report the injury to your employer immediately. Seek medical attention promptly, either through your employer's chosen provider or one you trust. Document everything related to your injury, including taking photographs, and keep a record of all communications and paperwork.
How soon should I report a work injury?
Report your work injury as soon as possible, ideally within 24 to 48 hours. Delaying your report can affect your ability to receive benefits. Each state has specific deadlines, so it's crucial to review local regulations and ensure timely reporting according to those guidelines.
