Supporting Injured Workers in Maryland: Your Rights, Your Benefits, Your Recovery
After a workplace injury, the physical pain can be overwhelming, but sometimes the stress of figuring out how to support your family and pay the bills while you’re out of work is even harder to bear. Rob firmly believes that understanding your rights can help ease that anxiety.
In Maryland, your employer is required to provide certain benefits if you are injured on the job. The most common include:
- Two-thirds of your average weekly wage while you’re unable to work.
- Coverage of medical expenses related to your work injury.
- Permanent disability benefits, if applicable.
On the surface, it seems straightforward. But when insurance companies get involved, things can become complicated—and that’s where Rob comes in. With more than 20 years of experience fighting for injured workers and their families, Rob is committed to ensuring you receive the benefits you are entitled to under the law.
If your employer or their insurance company challenges any part of your claim, you have the right to take your case before the Maryland Workers’ Compensation Commission. It’s crucial to file your claim within two years of the injury, and to have a skilled attorney with a proven track record on your side to navigate the process.
What sets Rob apart from other workers’ compensation attorneys in Maryland is his deep-rooted passion for workers’ rights. Rob’s grandfather was a union worker in the early days of organized labor, and his parents were active members of the teachers’ union. Today, as union protections face challenges, Rob remains dedicated to advocating for the rights of all workers, whether they are union members or not. Rob has represented hundreds of workers, and is proud that the Maryland Workers’ Compensation Act provides essential protections for those who need them most.
Rob will act swiftly to negotiate with the insurance carrier and secure your benefits without the need for a hearing. But if we need to go before the Commission, don’t worry, Rob has successfully handled hundreds of hearings and will fight tirelessly to get you the compensation you deserve as quickly as possible.
