South Florida Worker's Compensation Attorney

Work related injuries happen every day and the process is supposed to be very simple—you are hurt so you tell your employer and they provide you with medical attention and pay your wages while you are getting better. Simple, right? Wrong! The Worker’s Compensation statute was created by the Florida Legislature to be a simple process, but the insurance companies and recent changes in the law by the Legislature have made this process complicated and limiting to the injured worker. The insurance companies have a large staff of work accident lawyers available to protect them. As an injured worker, who is looking out for your rights in this complicated system?

Let the South Florida worker’s compensation attorneys at Cecere Santana, PA protect your rights and help you in every aspect of your case from beginning to end. We will help you with obtaining medical care and getting paid for your lost wages while you are unable to work.

We handle everything so that you can focus on getting better without the added stress.

Also, if the injury occurred at work but it was caused by the negligence of a third party, not the employer or an employee, you can, in addition to the worker’s compensation benefits, proceed against the at fault individual as a separate and distinct action. For example, a person could be employed as a delivery driver for a company. If that delivery driver is injured in an automobile accident while delivering for the employer, they may be able to obtain worker's compensation benefits from their employer, as the person was injured while in the course and scope of their employment. Along with the Worker's Compensation benefits, the injured person can also pursue a liability claim against the driver of the vehicle that struck the delivery person.
