We highly recommend Jeff Powers to anyone in need of an attorney. He is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and truly concerned for your welfare. We were recommended to Jeff by the attorney handling my accident case. We never knew we would need a worker’s compensation attorney but Jeff was willing to be there if we did. It turned out we did need him.

Adam and Jeff did a great job on my workers compensation case. When I first got hurt, the employer would not let me see a different doctor and kept discouraging me from filing a workers comp claim. I had never been injured at work.

Getting injured in the workplace is more of an issue than many people think. If you get injured at work, it can lead to embarrassment, difficulties with management, and a legal hassle with the workers compensation insurance company. Although you may think that you will never have to deal with a workplace injury, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that there are 3.4 cases per 100 Georgia workers every year. Although the aftermath of a workplace injury can be troubling, there are solutions to your problems. If you have recently been injured at work, the most important tip is to remain calm and seek legal counsel.
Immediately after a workplace injury, seek the medical attention. Leave no stone unturned as this is your highest priority. If your injury is not an emergency, file a report with your employer first because your employer may have a preferred doctor that you should see. In Georgia, you must inform your employer within 30 days of the injury. Even if your injury happened at the end of a work shift, tell a supervisor where on your body you have pain. If your injury is an emergency, do not hesitate to call for an ambulance or to have a coworker do the same.If you see a doctor before reporting your injury, make sure to report your injury as soon as possible thereafter. Workers compensation insurance companies will give you more problems when handling your claim if you took too long to report your injury to your employer. Make this your second highest priority in the process of responding to any workplace injuries in Georgia. It is a good idea to give the Employer written notice of the injury and always keep a copy of anything you give to another person.After reporting your injury, you should talk to a lawyer who handles work accident cases. You may even choose to hire a lawyer before reporting your injury if you have reason to believe that you will need legal representation from the start. In most cases, however, you do not need legal help until you begin preparing for a claim. Remember that a claim is different than a report. You report your injury to your employer, but you file a claim with the workers compensation insurance company as soon as you need help paying your medical bills.
Workplace injuries in Georgia are difficult to navigate, but the good news is that your employer is required to have workers compensation insurance if they employ three (3) or more employees. Of course, you need a good workers compensation lawyer to help you exercise all of your rights. This area of law is complex, and so it is quite helpful to have someone on your side who can counsel you about your legal options and who can represent you when communicating with the insurance company.
The most important thing to remember about hiring a workers compensation lawyer is the principle of promptness. If you do not file your claim in a timely manner, any insurance company providing workers compensation in Georgia will question the relation between your injury and your visit to the doctor. They may accuse you of being hurt outside of work to pay for a non-work related medical bill. By hiring a lawyer as soon as possible, you can know that your claim will be handled in the ideal manner.
The legal matters associated with workers compensation in Georgia are complicated, but with the help of a lawyer, you can receive the benefits to which you are legally entitled. Our workers compensation lawyers deal with these issues every day and at Powers Law Group we are here to help you. There is no reason for you to go through a workplace injury alone.

I received your card and all I can say is that you are surrounded by beauty. I will never forget all that you did for my family. You got us enough money to pay off the bills and also fix the house. I will never forget the week we added 20 feet to Mother’s room and a fireplace with a 51″ TV and a chair that would do everything but feed her (ha ha). She left from that room going to heaven. She was so happy and 95 years old.
Jeff, 2 other laywers said they could not help, but you said don’t worry you would take care of everything. I thank God for you. Your are so special.
Thank you Jeff for the pictures every year. We love to see the girls. Your wife is a special, beautiful lady. Looking forward to my card next year – if I am still living! Getting old Jeff –
