Worker Comp & Social Security Law in Phoenix

The attorneys at Taylor and Associates help injured workers in Phoenix and throughout Arizona obtain the compensation they need when disability or accidental injury on the job makes life difficult.  We are experienced in the areas of law that mean the most to an injured worker:

Workers Compensation

Regardless of who was at fault for the accident, Workers Compensation provides benefits to compensate you for your workplace injury.  You may be entitled to medical expenses, lost wages, or even job retraining.  Most employers are required to carry Workers Compensation insurance to cover both accidental injuries and certain medical conditions that developed as a result of work-related activity.  But claims can be reduced or denied, leaving you to pay out of your own pocket for your injuries or illness.  Our worker comp attorneys help you appeal from insufficient Workers Compensation awards so you can get the compensation you need to cover your costs.

Social Security

The Social Security Administration offers two programs to assist disabled individuals:

• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI):  This program is specifically designed to help disabled workers and certain family members.  To qualify, you must have worked and paid Social Security taxes over a specific period of time.
• Supplemental Security Income (SSI):  This program helps aged, blind, and disabled individuals by providing monetary assistance for basic necessities.  These individuals are not required to have a work history to qualify for SSI benefits.

Filing these claims is a detailed process that often results in claim denial or reduction when even one error is made.  Enlisting the help of an experienced law firm to handle the initial claim—or to appeal a claim that has been denied—can be a critical step in getting the compensation you need.  The disability law attorneys at Taylor and Associates have the skills needed to obtain the best possible results for your claim.

Personal Injury

Personal injury law permits anyone injured due to the carelessness of another party to pursue compensation for all expenses related to the injury.  The experienced personal injury attorneys at Taylor and Associates can help you negotiate a claim or file a lawsuit if you have been injured in any type of accident.  And even though an injured worker cannot file a personal injury lawsuit his or her employer or fellow employees, we pursue personal injury claims when an on-the-job accident was caused by negligent actions of individuals outside the company.
