How Whitley Law Firm Can Help
Workers’ compensation laws are set in place to protect America’s workers in case they are injured on the job. Fortunately, the majority of North Carolina workers are covered under their employer’s workers’ compensation insurance; however, filing a claim and receiving the benefits you deserve is not always that simple.
At a time when you need to have access to the highest quality medical care, and when you must rely on your temporary or permanent disability benefits to support your family, and when you must get the appropriate amount of time off from work to heal and recover, then hiring a workers comp will be the best insurance you can possibly have to turn a bad situation around for the better. Our firm can explain how workers’ compensation works and how it applies to you.
We can also assist you in the following areas including:
- Addressing your workers’ compensation injuries
- Bringing a lawsuit against your employer
- Understanding your vocational rehabilitation rights
Information About Workers’ Compensation Cases
Our firm is dedicated to protecting and advocating on behalf of the rights of injured workers.

When you have been injured on the job and your injuries threaten your health, safety and livelihood, you cannot afford to make a mistake in filing your claim or risk having your claim denied.
