Philadelphia Workers’ Compensation Attorney

Suffering an injury at work can be devastating to a worker’s family, especially when outcomes mirror tragic wrongful death cases. Being disabled from work and not receiving pay or medical treatment because an employer or insurance company denies workers’ compensation benefits can be traumatic. After many work injuries, employers and their insurance companies deny benefits and wait to see if the injured worker will hire an experienced Philadelphia workers’ compensation attorney to fight back.

In Pennsylvania, if you are injured while working, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. In most cases, you are eligible regardless of who is at fault for the accident. For example, if you drop a box on your foot and injure yourself while working, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. Workers’ compensation pays an injured worker’s medical bills and lost wages if the worker becomes disabled from employment.

In many cases, employers pay injured workers benefits for a short period after a work injury, then file petitions to limit or terminate the worker’s medical and wage-loss benefits.

Many times, workers suffer injuries caused by negligent third parties, similar to situations in car accidents where liability often resides outside the workplace. Common examples include motor-vehicle crashes, slip and fall incidents on the job, injuries caused by negligent contractors on a work site, faulty products, and dog attacks during deliveries.

Mr. Gagliano has resolved many large workers’ compensation claims where the employer attempted to terminate or end the injured worker’s benefits. He also resolved a workers’ compensation claim following an external motorcycle accident involving a delivery driver, ensuring full recovery for his client.

Mr. Gagliano recently settled an injured worker’s third-party accident claim for $750,000.00 after his delivery truck flipped over in Montgomery County while attempting to avoid another vehicle. The insurance carrier initially denied the claim and blamed the delivery driver.
