- Back and neck injuries - These may include spinal cord damage, tissue damage, muscle damage and other nerve injuries.
- Loss of a limb, or a digit (finger, toe) - These injuries may qualify you for a weekly benefit, as well as a lump sum payment for the amputation or loss of use of the limb or digit.
- Repetitive use claims - Such claims may result from lifting daily, or stress. The injuries may include back injuries; tendonitis; tenosynovitis; Carpal Tunnel Syndrome; De Quervain's Disease; bursitis and rotator cuff impingement syndrome; epicondylitis (trigger finger); Chronic Back Pain, lower back strain; Ganglion Cysts; herniated discs; Degenerative Disc Disease; Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome and more. Claims can also be made for mental disability or psychiatric problems resulting from daily stress (such as that experienced by police officers).
- Heart conditions - including stress-related ailments
- Carbon monoxide related injuries
- Lung/breathing conditions - including asbestosis, lung cancer, mesothelioma, COPD and sinusitis
- Sick Building Syndrome
- Injuries that involve any substantial aggravation of pre-existing injuries - If you have arthritis, and your job inflames it substantially to the point where you need surgery to repair the damage, that can be the basis for a worker's compensation claim.
Even if you are unsure that your injury qualifies, it is important to contact an attorney who understands worker's compensation claims. For instance, a new Ohio statute allows for the possibility of a successful worker's compensation claim even after a positive test for alcohol or marijuana. You can bring in witnesses to show that the injury was not a result of your intoxication. Just call us at
