Taking Action For People Suffering From An Occupational Disease

If you or a loved one suffers from an occupational disease or injury, it is critical that you have a dedicated workers’ compensation lawyer working for you. At Domer Law, we have offices in Waukesha and Wisconsin and represent injured workers across Wisconsin.

There are countless types of occupational injuries that can keep a person from working. For example, any of the following diseases or injuries, if incurred at work, may entitle you to workers’ comp benefits:

  • Respiratory disease
  • Pneumonia
  • Silicosis
  • Lead poisoning
  • Hearing loss
  • Repetitive stress injuries

Repetitive stress injuries are typically the result of performing the same task at work over and over again. These injuries can happen in many different lines of work, including assembly line work or jobs that involve picking up and putting down objects. Back injuries are a common type of repetitive stress injury. Even people who work at a desk all day can develop carpal tunnel syndrome or other injuries.

Fighting To Help You Get The Benefits You Deserve

If you have suffered an occupational injury, Domer Law will work hard to help you recover the workers’ compensation benefits you need. One big issue that often comes up in cases involving repetitive stress injuries is whether our client is eligible for a joint replacement. Our clients and the insurance company may dispute whether or not the injury took place at work.

We will make a persuasive case on your behalf for all the benefits you may be eligible to receive. There are other benefits you may be entitled to that you might not be aware of. For example, you may be eligible for job retraining benefits.
