Can an Occupational Disease Such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome be Covered by Workers’ Compensation in North Carolina? Edelstein Payne offers Free Case Evaluations

https://raleighworkerscompensation.com


In this video, attorney M. Travis Payne explains: "There are really two different types of medical problems that can arise on the job that are covered by workers compensation. One is injury by accident. The other which is more difficult factually and medically is an occupational disease. Occupational diseases are often what is called "repetitive motion claims". Someone who has typed on a keyboard for 20 years, and ends up with carpal tunnel syndrome in both their hands and wrists. Someone who has done the same motion on an assembly line. 200 times a minute with their leg, and does that for several years and their knee gives out. There's no accident there, but those cases can be compensable as workers' comp cases. It requires very strong medical testimony from the treating doctors. If you have such a situation, and you have submitted a claim to workers' comp and it has been denied, and you want a free consultation, please contact the website at the bottom of this video." https://raleighworkerscompensation.com  919-828-1456.

Does North Carolina Law state all job injuries are accidents? NC Law states not all job injuries are accidents: Here's an Example of an Injury not caused by an "Accident" Call a Workers Comp lawyer prior to speaking with an Insurance Representative or filling out a Report

https://raleighworkerscompensation.com/ DO NOT SPEAK WITH COMPANY INSURANCE REP PRIOR TO A COMP LAWYER: Here's a real world tip for injured workers.  The truth is stranger than fiction. To illustrate the requirement for an injury by accident , I want to use an actual situation.  I was contacted by a firefighter.  At the end of his shift, he realized he had left some gear on the top of the rear of the fire truck. He went up the ladder at the rear of the truck.  Came down the ladder which ends about 30 inches off the ground.  He jumps down, and immediately feels pain in his left knee.  He files the accident report.  About a day later, he gets interviewed by the claims adjuster.  She asks him, "How many times have you gone up and down that ladder?" (Probably thousands of times).  "What kind of surface was it that you landed on?" (Smooth concrete it was in the engine bay.)  "Were there any rocks or sand or sticks there?" (No)  "D...

www.raleighworkerscompensation.com Is it just me, or does the NC Workers Compensation System cause injured employees frustration?  It is not just you, the NC workers Compensation System does cause many injured employees frustration. If you were injured on the job, and particularly if your injury is accepted as compensable, and you've been out of work for an extended time, more likely than not you have experienced lots of frustration with the workers' compensation system .  That unfortunately, is the way the system is administrated, administered, and the medical care and the benefits workers are entitled to are not always provided in a speedy fashion.
