And what that means is your medical expenses, pharmacy expenses, therapy expenses, lost income from work, future lost income from employment, loss of enjoyment of life, scars, disfigurement, embarrassment, any legitimate loss that you had, you can recover for it, as well as your actual pain and suffering.

What types of injuries can be covered in a dog bite or attack claim in California?

The Roberts Law Firm

Dog bite claims have unique injuries different from many other types of accidents. In particular, scarring. And in a dog bite claim, all medical bills can be compensated. If someone looses income due to the dog bite, they will recover their lost income. Pain and suffering, but also, as I said, scarring. Scarring, particularly, on small children causes problems later on as they get older and requires surgeries and those surgeries will be compensated as well.

What types of injuries are covered by workers' compensation?

Kantrovitz & Associates, P.C.

Worker's Compensation covers injuries or accidents that arise in the course of your employment. Many of them are very obvious. You know, I bent down and I lifted something up awkwardly, and I had an acute injury to my back or my neck. And the ones that become far more difficult and where people really don't understand their coverage are the repetitive type injuries, that - the types of injuries that happen over time, that my job requires me to lift heavy things day in and day out; and over time my body breaks down where I can't do the functions of my job. People unfortunately don't know that that is exactly what Worker's Compensation covers, that they feel it has to be some specific acute identifiable event. And that's not what the statute requires. My name is attorney Stephen (sp?) Kantrovitz of Kantrovitz & Associates. For the past 20 years we have been representing individuals in the greater Boston area in worker's Compensation, personal injury and Social Security disability claims.

What is workers' compensation?

Kantrovitz & Associates, P.C.

If somebody in Massachusetts has an injury while they're at work and they are unable to earn their wages and/or require medical care, they're going to be covered for their lost wages and their medical treatment. The question or the issue of fault is irrelevant. We don't ask the question of "Was it John's fault when he fell down a flight of stairs at work, or lifted the box at work," that's not the question. The question is whether or not they were an employee, whether or not they were hurt while they were working and whether or not they are disabled from performing the functions of their job and/or require medical care, period. My name is Attorney Steven Kantrovitz of Kantrovitz and Associates. For the past twenty years we've been representing individuals in the Greater Boston area in worker's compensation, personal injury, and Social Security disability claims.
