Workers Compensation

At Findley & Silcher, we have a passion for representing workers' who are injured or develop occupational diseases during the course of their employment. Our Attorneys are experienced in diligently representing your interests and will work hard to get you the benefits you deserve from the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries or self-insured Employer. In fact, our attorneys have actually provided legal counsel for these institutions in the past! This means that they have an unprecedented depth of knowledge and experience in knowing the correct tactical moves that will result in a better recovery for you.

• Findley & Silcher frequently handles workers' compensation cases where a claim has been rejected, or other benefits denied by Washington or a self-insured Employer. Our staff provides consistently exceptional legal services to Washington’s injured workers. Benefits available to Washington’s injured workers include:
  Reimbursement for medical expenses, including surgery, medications, hospitalization, physical therapy, or other forms of medical treatment

• Compensation for lost wages and lost health care benefit coverage. Wage reimbursement may be obtained for a worker’s temporary inability to work (time-loss benefits), permanent inability to work (pension benefits), or partial loss of ability to work (loss of earning power benefits)

• Compensation for a permanent loss of physical function (permanent partial disability)

• Vocational retraining services for up to two years at a qualified retraining institution of higher learning

• Reopening of a claim if the covered condition has become objectively aggravated, resulting in increased disability or the need for further proper and necessary medical treatment
