Understanding Workers’ Compensation in Pennsylvania
Workers’ compensation is a system designed to help you if you get hurt or sick because of your job. It can cover things like your medical treatment, lost wages if you can’t work, and even help with job training if you need to switch careers.
In Pennsylvania, most employers are required to carry workers’ comp insurance. But just because the system is there doesn’t mean it’s always easy to use. Claims can be confusing, paperwork piles up quickly, and insurance companies often try to pay as little as possible.
That’s where we come in. Our job is to make sure you get the support and money you’re owed—so you can focus on healing instead of fighting through red tape.

Protect Your Rights Following a Workplace Incident
If you have questions about your rights following a workplace accident, it's essential to immediately consult with a workers' compensation attorney at Freeburn Law. Our legal team has successfully handled hundreds of workers' compensation cases across Pennsylvania, helping injured workers get the answers they need to questions like:
- Who will pay my medical bills?
- Will I be compensated for my lost wages?
Steps in Filing a Workers’ Compensation Claim
Filing a claim can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re trying to recover. Here’s a quick breakdown of what the process usually looks like:
- Tell your employer as soon as possible after your injury—ideally the same day it happens.
- Get medical treatment, and make sure to go to a doctor approved by your employer’s insurance (at least for the first 90 days).
- Document everything—the accident, your symptoms, missed work, and any communication with your employer or insurance company.
- Call us—the sooner we get involved, the better we can protect your rights and help move things forward.
From there, we’ll take care of the paperwork, talk to the insurance company on your behalf, and make sure nothing gets missed.
How Long Do Most Workers' Comp Settlements Take?
A workers' compensation settlement can take time, depending on the case's complexity, the injury's severity, and the insurance companies' willingness to negotiate. Settlements usually take a few months to over a year. However, hiring an experienced lawyer can help speed up the process and may lead to a quicker settlement.

Denied Workers' Compensation Claims: What Are Your Options?
If your claim was denied, don’t panic—and don’t give up. Many workers’ comp claims are denied at first. It doesn’t mean you don’t have a valid case.
Sometimes claims are denied for small technical reasons, like missing paperwork or unclear medical records. Other times, insurance companies just hope you won’t push back. That’s why having an experienced attorney makes such a big difference.
We’ll review your denial, figure out what went wrong, and file an appeal if needed. We’ll gather the right evidence, talk to your doctors, and represent you at hearings if it comes to that. We’ve helped many injured workers turn denials into successful settlements.
You don’t have to go through this alone. We’re here to stand up for you.
