Workers' Compensation

Southern Minnesota Workers' Compensation Lawyers

Work injuries can have a significant financial impact on families. Minnesota workers' compensation benefits can help keep people afloat while they recover from their injuries. However, if those benefits are delayed, denied, or disputed, it may be necessary hire a workers' compensation attorney to obtain benefits. At Plunkett and Associates, Inc. in Austin, Minnesota, our attorneys have extensive experience representing people who have had a legitimate workers' compensation claim denied.

Dedicated to Recovering Workers' Compensation Benefits

If you have been injured on the job, regardless of the severity of the injury, inform you employer immediately. You do not have to be totally disabled to receive workers' compensation benefits in Minnesota. Neither do you have to show that the injury was a result of employer negligence. All injures that occur in the workplace are eligible for workers' compensation benefits.

There are several types of workers' compensation benefits that can be paid, depending on the severity and duration of the injury:

  • Temporary total disability (TTD)
  • Temporary partial disability (TPD)
  • Permanent total disability (PTD)
  • Permanent partial disability (PPD)
  • Death and dependency benefits
  • Medicaid benefits
  • Rehabilitation and retraining benefits 

Our attorneys are dedicated to helping people obtain the resources they need to recover from a workplace injury. In cases involving total disability or temporary total disability, our clients are often eligible for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) in conjunction with their workers' compensation benefits. At Plunkett and Associates, we look for every possible source of recovery for injured employees. We are committed to providing the southern Minnesota communities we serve with high quality and cost effective workers' compensation representation.
