Common Types of Work Injuries
Most people don’t go into work expecting to get hurt. Unfortunately, however, it can happen more often than you think. Here are the most common types of work injuries:
- Falls: Falls are more common in the construction industry and can result in traumatic brain injuries and other severe injuries. They can fall from several heights, including roofs, ladders, platforms and stairways. Workers can reduce the risk of these accidents by following safety protocols.
- Machine Entanglement: Employees who work around heavy machinery in factories can suffer machine entanglement. If they’re not careful, they can get their hands, arms, legs and other body parts stuck in machines and suffer tearing and crushing injuries. To reduce the risk of these accidents, workers shouldn’t wear loose clothing or jewelry.
- Slip and Fall Accidents: Slip and fall accidents make up a large percentage of slip and fall accidents. They can occur in many workplaces, from offices to factories, and can result in many types of injuries, including head injuries, broken bones and spinal cord injuries. These accidents can result from liquid spills, wet floors, clutter and icy surfaces.
- Vehicle Accidents: Certain professions, like pizza delivery or limousine drivers, require you to operate a vehicle. If you get into a car accident while on the clock, you may be eligible for workers compensation. You may also be able to file a third-party claim against the driver who hit you.
- Repetitive Motion: If you perform the same tasks over and over, you are in danger of suffering repetitive motion injuries. For example, if you type on a computer or work on an assembly line, you can suffer nerve damage.
- Violence: As a Johnson City workers compensation lawyer can confirm, violence does occur in the workplace. If a coworker assaults you after getting into an argument, for example, you may be entitled to workers compensation benefits. Employers should have a zero-tolerance for workplace violence.
- Falling Objects: When items aren’t properly secured on shelves, they can fall and hit workers on the head, causing head injuries. Workers who work in factory settings should always wear hard hats and be aware of their surroundings.
- Overexertion: Employees who work in factory settings may have to lift heavy objects for long periods of time. This can result in neck and back injuries over time. To reduce the risk of these injuries, employees should take frequent breaks.
Filing a Workers Compensation Claim
It is important to report your injury as soon as possible in the state of Tennessee. According to the Tennessee state government website, an employee has 15 days to report their injury to a manager or supervisor. If that employer of yours does not take your injury seriously or even worse, attempts to terminate you, then contacting a Johnson City workers compensation lawyer may be in your best interest at that point. The Law Offices of Mark T. Hurt are experienced with workers compensation claims and can listen to the details of your case and review any reports. Your claim could be entitled to benefits, compensation, and possible reimbursement of any doctor’s bills, therapy sessions or hospital visits that have arisen. Make sure to file that injury report with your employer as soon as possible if you have been injured on the job.
Common Expenses & Compensation
When you have been injured at work, make sure to see a doctor as soon as possible to treat your injuries. Time missed from work, hospital visits, physical therapies, and more are all a part of the expenses that can and should be reimbursed to you. Contact a Johnson City workers compensation lawyer from our firm today to learn more about the possible compensation of benefits, reimbursements and other possible expenses involved with these cases. These cases do not have to be fought alone as they contain many details and nuances that can be hard to navigate without the aid of experienced legal counsel from The Law Offices of Mark T. Hurt. We are ready to fight for you and assist you with your case going forward. Those who have caused injuries to others whether by their own means or from the means of accidental negligence should be held accountable and the victims should be helped and reimbursed and entitled to benefits.
Dealing with Insurance
Companies are required to carry workers compensation insurance in the event that one of their employees gets injured on the job. The unfortunate thing about insurance companies though is that they generally attempt to get victims of work injuries to accept a lower than fair settlement. They may try to negotiate with you to take away some necessary parts of your claim that are important to you like disability benefits or medical treatment. Lawyers from the Law Offices of Mark T. Hurt have seen these actions taken by insurance companies many times and understand the different strategies that they take to try and get your case closed and unfairly compensated as soon as possible. Our lawyers will seek the best possible settlement in your case and not let the insurance company take advantage of you, especially when you are dealing with these aching injuries. We will work with you to help you understand the necessary steps to take and not to fear any retaliatory moves from your employer. Contact a Johnson City workers compensation lawyer from our firm today to begin your case and get you on the right track to the compensation that you deserve.

I contacted the law offices of Mark T. Hurt regarding a traffic ticket I received. Initially I was concerned because I live between Florida and New York, and with Virginia being midway, handling my ticket would be a major inconvenience, and I wanted to keep my record free of any infractions.Choosing Mark T. Hurt to represent me was the best choice I made, and it was further improved with the assistance of Rhonda, who contacted me once they received my request. Rhonda is one of those unique people who has mastered the fine line between being perfectly professional and friendly. Every conversation we had, was made to feel as if I were speaking to a close friend. One of the most appreciated aspects of working with her was her understanding and respectful of my schedule and time.For my work, I have a hectic schedule and very few free moments, so being able to handle things quickly and effectively is a priority for me, and Rhonda understood that and took care of everything as if she knew exactly what I was expecting. I even got sick while working with Rhonda, and her first comment was to wish me well. She also went out of her way to find solutions regarding my traffic citation that worked around my schedule. The price was fair, and when considering the quality of work and more importantly, the quality of people you will be reliant upon to ensure the best possible outcome for whatever your situation is, they can ask for 10x more than what I paid and it would still be worth it.All in all, recommendation for this law office, and for Rhonda herself, could not be higher. If you are searching for someone to represent you in any legal matter whatsoever, this is the office to work with. Thank you again Rhonda.

I'm not a Virgina resident and had found this firm through Google. I have a traffic violation case in tennessee and was desperate to get awnsers. This law office's staff was so helpful even though I wasn't able to even be a client, I believe the person who awnsered was Ashley. After their direction on finding another attorney and my case I was able to push my court date back and will be able to find someone to represent me.I'm not even a client, they didn't have to help me at all! I just wish they practiced in the tri cities area! Would recommend this group!

Late in July I was charged with a reckless driving ticket in Greenville County, Virginia. I got caught going 83mph in a 55mph zone. It was my first offense on my driving record and I did not need a misdemeanor which could hurt my career. I was assured by Mrs Rhonda Hurt not to worry and that her team would take care of it. On my end, the only effort I put in was taking a 12 hour defensive driving course and sending her my driving record. Two months later, the result of my hearing was a reduction to a defective equipment/non driving violation with 0 points off my record. The other good part about this case was I did not have to go to court. In court fees I paid $68 and a fine of $78 for my ticket. Mrs. Rhonda and her team put together a miracle in that county and I cannot give her enough credit. I sincerely recommend this firm because I know they worked hard on my case and will do the same for you. Thank you again!

I got a traffic ticket while I traveled passing through VA in May.It is a big deal if you have the Law Section: 44-1/46/2-862 and speeding excess of 80 MPH in your ticket. It is a Criminal Misdemeanor Reckless Driving Charge!I saw Mark T. Hurt's Law office simple letter, I decided to give a call and get a free consultation.From the call, Rhonda provided a detail explaining the criminal charge of the Misdemeanor Reckless Driving ticket is about. She is a very caring and honest person, no sale pressure to me to take their law office at all.Once I decided to use their firm to represent me in court, it didn't take an hour, I was told totake some actions and wait for cout day to see the result. That is that simple and no worry at all. On the court date, I received text messages from lawyer's office. Guess what? The lawyer did a miraculous and fantastic job for me in the court.The Reckless Driving Misdemeanor ticket has been reduced to an Improper Driving traffic ticket.Thanks to Mark T. Hurt's Law office team! They are not only very professional and transparent but also does the best quality job you can find. I strongly recommend them to be your lawyer if you need one in VA.

Having landed a Reckless Driving (99 in a 65) on my way back to FL from WV, I came across this law firm when searching something along "best reckless driving lawyers Virginia."Mr. Hurt's firm dropped my "Criminal Misdemeanor" to an improper driving. Which from my understanding is right next to a normal speeding ticket.All expenses accounted (payment, court cost, fine), I'm out roughly $1,100 ; but I'd much rather pay that once today, than every six months to an insurance company for the next... God knows how many years. I am extremely grateful and overjoyed with my outcome.As far as speaking with the great ladies at these offices, everyone was always kind, quick, and considerate. They answered all my questions, explained all my options and possible outcomes. I had a clean record, and had now experience dealing with courts or lawyers, so their patience and knowledge was especially helpful. If I ever screw up again (I pray to God I don't) I hope it's in Virginia, so I can call upon Mr. Hurt's offices.

I was driving through Virginia to visit family when I was stopped and written a ticket for reckless driving. I called Mark Hurt's law office and they told exactly what I would need to do prior to the trial. Got the news that my charge had been reduced to defective equipment and all I had to do was pay 250 dollars plus fees. This firm saved me time, money, and a criminal record. Thank you Mark Hurt and your diligent team.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in this case. This conclusion was received very warmly by us. I am a free man thanks to you.Your team was always courteous and consistent in promptly responding to questions along the way. I felt like I was in good hands from start to finish. I appreciated having the opportunity to communicate with a few of you by telephone, text or email (I am Canadian) and the professionalism was strong from top to bottom.The day of the favourable decision, I received an email in the evening, well after office hours, which demonstrated to me their dedication in getting back to me as soon as it was possible. I had known all along that I wouldn't need to follow up, just from the way my case was handled throughout.I could not have asked for more, am very thankful for the favourable result and highly encourage anyone to contact you if they require legal counsel.

The law office exceeded my expectations by getting my reckless driving charge dismissed.Important things to note:-The receptionist Carol was extremely amiable and even pushed the trial back a few months since I found them literally a day before my court date.-I live out of state and they took care of everything through the phone, email, mail.-Melanie Blankenship emailed/called me to give me the outcome of the trial and was very thorough.

Promise made. Promise kept.5.0 starsPosted by EricDecember 13, 2018When I learned that what I thought was a regular speeding ticket for being clocked at 86 mph in a 70 mph zone on a stretch of I-81 in VA less than 30 miles from TN this past September enroute from York PA to visit my sick aunt in Knoxville, was really a Class 1 misdemeanor reckless driving charge which carried with it a year in jail, a $2,500.00 fine, and six points on my license I was both shocked & outraged; shocked that the penalty was so severe in an obvious speed trap and outraged that the ticketing officer did not tell me what I had when asked; saying that I could pay off the ticket over the phone without having to appear in court; neither of which was true with this particular charge. But for my suspicion that the officer had not told me the truth I would never have looked up the code on my ticket once I reached my destination and discovered the serious nature of the charge. I was sick because I knew I had no money to hire an attorney; let alone pay that $2,500.00 fine. Fortunately, while looking up the specifics of what I was charged with, I came across the Law Offices of Mark T. Hurt and the rave reviews I read compelled me to contact his offices on the spot. I explained my dire financial situation and to my amazement his office agreed to take a $100.00 down payment on the spot with the balance of the flat $400.00 fee to be paid off between now & my court date of December 13, 2018 (a date which they had gotten moved from September after I had only paid half of my fee). Well, I did what they told me to do; taking an eight hour safe driving course (which I found to be extremely helpful) and sending in my driving record which fortunately for me had not had any kind of infractions for over twenty years. As a result, due to Mark's representation, the court agreed to reduce my reckless driving charge to a basic traffic infraction of 79/70. This reduced my financial penalty from $2,500.00 to a $175.00 fine plus $64.00 in court costs and three points on my license. In an additional stroke of good fortune, I happen to live in one of two states (PA) which does not count three point out of state traffic infractions against my driving record which means my insurance rates will not go up. So all total I am out of $715.00 from this whole experience when you factor in attorney's fees, court costs, fine, and safe driving course & while it is a financial hit I can ill afford, it is a whole, whole lot better than the $2,500.00 hit plus six points & having a permanent criminal record I would have received had I done what so many out of state drivers unwittingly do; allow their reckless driving charge to result in a conviction either by not hiring a super attorney like Mark T. Hurt & representing themselves, or not showing up at all and taking the full hit by foolishly ignoring the seriousness of the charge. Don't be an idiot and incur such needless damage to yourself by trying to handle this alone because trust me, you won't win and you sure as hell will lose big. The Law Offices of Mark T, Hurt will work with you and as my title here states, a Promise they make is a Promise they keep. Just be sure to hold up your end & do exactly what they tell you to do because if you do that, you will surely come out ahead. So thank you Mark and thank your wonderful staff. All of you are superb in what you do and are true to your word. Just please don't hold it against me if during my next trip south I choose to fly over Virginia rather than drive through it. Hell, those folks are so overzealous in trapping folks in speed traps that right now I'm even afraid of taking the train through that state for fear that they might stop it for speeding and ticket everyone on board. Hey, you never know. Anyway, thanks again Mark and God Bless.With Kindest Regards,Eric D. Smith
