Legal Options Available for Emergency Responders Injured on the Job
We make sure that police, fire, EMS, and other first responders who have been injured on the job are able to meet their medical needs. You may be entitled to file a workers’ compensation claim based on the hardships you face protecting the public. Worker’s comp benefits generally include 100% reimbursement of all medical bills and other costs for treating work-related accidents.
Disability benefits for total and partial disability can provide income to replace some portion of your wages if you are unable to work because of your injury. These benefits can continue temporarily or permanently, depending on your recovery status. Workers’ compensation also offers surviving dependents a death benefit if an emergency responder is killed on the job.
