The Dominick Law Firm focuses its practice on Colorado workers compensation injuries to the head, brain, neck, shoulders, and spine. Because of the Law Firm's location in Boulder, Colorado, injured workers come from the entire Colorado Front Range, including Boulder, Longmont, Louisville, Lafayette, Erie, Broomfield, Greeley, Ft. Collins, Superior and Denver.
Colorado workers compensation law is basically a complicated no fault system. If a worker is injured at work, the worker is entitled to medical care and 2/3 of his lost wages no matter if the worker was or was not at fault for the injury. If the worker has a permanent injury, he or she is entitled to an "Impairment Rating" at the end of the case which is used to determine how much the worker should be compensated. Workers Compensation law has become increasingly complicated over the last 20 years. It truly pays off for the injured worker to be represented by a good attorney.
The Insurance Company will be represented by an experienced adjuster who does not have your best interests at heart. Injured workers should consider hiring an experienced attorney to help them. Legal fees are regulated by the Division of Workers Compensation and generallly can not exceed a 20% contingent fee. In other words, if the attorney does not win your case, the attorney will not be entitled to a fee.
