• Failing to Report the Injury Promptly
  Report your injury within the legally mandated timeframe (often 30 days) to avoid jeopardizing your claim.
• Delaying Medical Treatment
  Seek medical care immediately after an injury – even if symptoms seem minor – to ensure proper documentation and prompt treatment.
• Not Documenting Missed Work and Related Losses
  Keep detailed records of all days missed and any impact on your wages; these records can be crucial in supporting your claim.
• Posting on Social Media
  Refrain from sharing details or images related to your injury or recovery online, as these posts can be used against you.
• Signing Documents or Medical Forms Without Legal Review
  Always consult with a workers’ compensation attorney before signing any documents to ensure your rights are protected and to prevent unintentionally compromising your claim.
