St. Paul Repetitive Stress Injuries Lawyer
Over time workers of all kinds end up with carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive stress injuries because of the nature of the work they do:
- Office workers
- Health care workers
- Construction workers
- Manufacturing workers
- Truck drivers
- And many more
Repetitive stress injuries are also called Gillette injuries and the results may be referred to as minute trauma.
Regardless what you call an injury that you suffer at work — workers' compensation, work comp, workers' comp, workman's comp, work-related or workplace injury — if you are injured at work or on the job, you may be entitled to benefits under Minnesota's work comp statutes. Your work-related injury generally will be covered even if it was partly or completely your fault. Also, even if your employer does not have workers' compensation coverage, you may still be eligible for benefits.
Employers frequently deny employee claims for work comp benefits even when they have a clear claim to benefits. When that happens getting work comp benefits from your employer can be uncomfortable, confrontational and upsetting. That's where Nelson Law Office can help. We can step in to advocate for you and advance your claim when you can use help jumping through the hoops necessary to obtain your benefits. We have successfully handled workers' comp claims of all kinds over the years for clients whose work requires that they perform repetitive tasks.
