Florida Workers Compensation Attorney

Most people who have been injured at work, or while performing work duties, must turn to the workers compensation system out of financial necessity. The system is set up to provide injured workers with financial support, mainly along the lines of lost and recovered wages. If you’ve been injured, and are unable to work, compensation is usually available. Unfortunately, the worker’s compensation system is complicated. And Florida law does not require your employer to hold your position for you until you return.

The best advice to get all the benefits you deserve is to enlist an attorney on your side. At Avera & Smith, we understand Florida’s workers compensation system, and will help you explore all available options for compensation.

Even if you have previously applied for benefits and been denied, please contact us regardless. Many workers compensation cases involve plaintiffs who have been previously, erroneously denied benefits. We will fight for the compensation you deserve -- including long-term lost wages -- and help you get back on your feet as fast as possible.

Experience. Caring. Results.
