Kelly & West Attorneys
Workers compensation laws vary from state to state, and they are typically very complicated due to the facts that they vary by industry, and that the state’s legislating body constantly updates them. In the case of a lawsuit in Sampson(and throughout the state of North Carolina), workers’ compensation laws state that an employer must carry workers’ compensation insurance if it employs three or more employees and does not meet an exception. Additionally, the employer has the right to choose the physician an injured employee sees, and an employee may have to wait seven days to begin receiving monetary compensation for their injuries.
It’s crucial to note that the laws regarding workers’ compensation are far more complicated than the above stipulations. If you or a loved one has been injured while working anywhere within the state of North Carolina (or if you have lost a loved one as a result of an on-the-job injury in NC), the experienced attorneys at Kelly & West are here to help you seek compensation for you losses and suffering.
