Slip, Trip and Fall

Helping injured workers in Philadelphia

Slip, trip and fall accidents are common in workplaces, and workers can be left seriously injured as a result. The Law Offices of Richard A. Jaffe, LLC has handled well over a thousand cases involving injured workers. Workers' compensation attorney Jaffe knows how to help injured workers get the benefits they need and deserve after a work accident.

Workers who have been hurt in a slip-and fall or trip-and-fall accident may need treatment that involves surgery, hospitalization, physical therapy and rest. They may also be unable to work for some time. In Pennsylvania, workers' compensation benefits are supposed to cover the cost of treatment and provide partial wages. But the claims process can be difficult.

  • Slip, trip and fall accidents can happen at any kind of workplace. The types of accidents that can leave workers injured may involve:
  • Ice, rain or snow on a loading dock or parking lot
  • Warped or uneven flooring
  • Torn carpets
  • Cluttered or poorly maintained stairways
  • Exposed cords on the floor
  • Poorly lit work areas or hallways
  • Spilled fluids

When a worker is hurt, workers' compensation benefits are supposed to help. But insurance companies try to limit the benefits injured workers receive. And employers may even question whether the injury was work-related. They each have lawyers on their side, looking out for their best interests.

Knowledge and experience get results

That's why you need an experienced workers' compensation attorney who will fight for you. Attorney Richard A. Jaffe used to represent insurance companies in these types of cases. He knows the tactics insurance companies use to minimize benefits and he doesn't put up with them. He has helped injured workers throughout the state get the benefits they need.

You may have been told that you don't need a lawyer to file a workers' compensation claim. That is technically true, but it is often not a good idea. Insurance company lawyers know the workers' compensation laws and will try to take advantage of you. They are counting on you being happy with whatever benefits they agree to give you.

Attorney Jaffe, a Certified Specialist in Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Law, has a thorough knowledge of workers' compensation laws, and he knows how to fight to maximize your benefits. He also knows how to investigate your accident to find evidence that proves your injury was work-related. And if a doctor chosen by your employer says you are ready to return to work when you are still hurting, he will fight to get your benefits extended.
