Golitko & Daly, P.C., Handles Back and Neck Injury Cases
A back or neck injury is sometimes a difficult legal matter. Insurance companies tend to put up roadblocks for claims of soft tissue injuries, injuries that require chiropractic treatment and injuries that are not visible on x-rays. At Golitko & Daly, P.C., we understand the challenges you face if you live with pain. You do not want to battle insurance companies to get the financial relief you need to move forward. Let us take on that burden for you.
Our Indianapolis back injury accident attorneys can evaluate your medical reports from the point of view of both attorney and health care professional. One of our lawyers, Judith Golitko, is also a nurse. She is well acquainted with back injuries and their effects, including herniated disks, fractured vertebrae, pinched nerves and bulging discs that require surgery, fusion or physical therapy.
You will find both compassion and advocacy at Golitko & Daly, P.C., when you discuss your back injury with our lawyers. Contact us to schedule a consultation.
Did You Injure Your Back at Work in Indiana?
Our Indiana workers' compensation attorneys are experienced advocates for people who have suffered back and neck injuries on the job, including:
- Construction workers
- Nursing home employees
- Factory workers
- Auto mechanics
- Over-the-road truckers
- Owner-operators
- Delivery workers
In fact, people in many types of jobs run the risk of back injury due to the physical challenges involved in their work. While construction accidents often lead to serious back injuries, even office workers may suffer a back injury by slipping on stairs. Repetitive motion injuries are common in many professions, developing over months or years of repeated tasks.
Third Party Liability and Social Security Disability Claims
If your back injury happened at work, Golitko & Daly, P.C., is an ideal law firm to handle both your workers' compensation claim and any third-party liability claims. For example, a subcontractor or an equipment manufacturer may share some liability for your back injury. A defective product or a lack of guards on dangerous equipment may also have contributed to your construction injury.
If you are unable to work for 12 months or more as a result of your back injury, ask about your eligibility for Social Security disability benefits.
