Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation is available to any employee who is hurt at work, or suffers disabilty due to work activity. This includes situations where there is not one specific injury or accident, but instead where the cumulative effect of work activities causes the employee to suffer medical harm resulting in disability, such as injury from repetitive strain or work-related aggravation of a degenerative condition.
Most employers, however, attempt to block such claims. Employers and insurers may work very hard to mislead employees about their rights, and often try to manipulate the medical evidence in such cases.
These scenarios also raise unique issues relating to notice of the injury and distinguishing work-related from non-work-related cuases of disability. Your employer and its workers compensation insurance carrier will try to exploit those issues to deny you your rights.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS:
I had a serious work related injury. I hired Tim after speaking with him and feeling completely at ease with his professionalism and demeanor. My case became complicated over time. Throughout the process I always felt that Tim had my best interest in mind. With every phone call or email, Tim was very informative and proactive, always explaining things in a way I could understand. He worked hard for me in his dealings with my employers insurance company. He did this so much so, the insurance company actually fired their own attorneys in the middle of litigation. In the end, Tim was able to negotiate a substantial settlement, including taking the burden off of me of an excessive amount of unpaid medical bills. I would highly recommend Tim.

Timothy is a really great lawyer. He knows what to do, and how to handle really sticky situations. When I first came to him, I had very little to back me up, but we mainly him lol pulled through and got the job done with GREAT results. If I could back in time I would still pick him as a lawyer 1000 times more. He took his time, talk to me like I was a person and not a dollor sign, and made lawyer jargon understandable english for me. I truely felt comfortable with him handling my case, and I never doubted him since the very first meeting. I also like that he gives his personal direct number to get in contact with him whenever you may need him, and he always responds if not that same day, the very next. The only bad thing I would have to say is its a shame I would have legal trouble to work with him again lol.
