I get it- no one wants to hire a lawyer. But sometimes you just have to. One of the most common situations we see is employees who come to us after they get seriously  hurt and try to manage their comp cases on their own, then realize they're in over their heads. They can't get the insurance rep to call them back to get weekly checks or specialist referrals or prescriptions filled, and they don't know their rights or what benefits they qualify for.

We hear the same thing from these confused, frustrated, worried souls, stated in different ways: "I just thought they'd take care of me. I've been a good employee."

And many times, they're shocked to discover it's not the employer behind it- it's the workers comp insurance company that just won't help. The employer's out of the loop. That leaves an injured, inexperienced employee to take on a massive insurance company filled with veteran claims reps who help the company profit by shortchanging injured employees.

And that's why you need a lawyer. In this brief video, Spartanburg, South Carolina  workers' comp attorney Rob Usry reveals the major reason you need an attorney.
