St. Louis, Missouri, Workers' Compensation Lawyers

An on-the-job injury can rob you of your ability to work and earn a living. But the bills don't stop just because you are injured. How can you pay your living expenses when you are unable to go to work?

At Bollwerk & Ryan, LLC, in St. Louis, Missouri, our attorneys help employees who have suffered injury on the job receive the workers' comp benefits they need and deserve from their employers' workers' compensation insurance companies.

Collecting workers' compensation can be complicated and frustrating. It requires a knowledgeable lawyer familiar with the Missouri workers' compensation process, and delays can cost you valuable benefits. Contact us today for help with your claim.

Our attorneys have helped clients who have sustained all kinds of on-the-job injuries and occupational illnesses, including:

• Back injury
• Knee injuries
• Shoulder injuries
• Carpal tunnel syndrome or repetitive stress injury
• Construction site accidents
• Work-related motor vehicle accidents
• Work-related fires, explosions and electrocutions
• Falls, cuts and amputations
• Brain injuries

It is important to act promptly if you have a workplace injury. Missouri workers have only 30 days to notify their employer of the accident, injury, or occupational illness. You must also get medical treatment by a medical professional authorized by your employer. Your benefits vary depending on whether you have a permanent or temporary disability. We can help with proper filing of paperwork and follow-up on all claims.

In addition to workers' compensation benefits, if you have been injured on the job and are likely to be out of work for at least a year, you may also be entitled to receive Social Security Disability benefits. We can help you find out if you qualify and help you in your application for these benefits.

If you are having problems with your workers' compensation claim, please contact an attorney at Bollwerk & Ryan, LLC, for assistance. We can help you navigate the confusing workers' comp system so that you can recover the benefits you are entitled by law to receive.
