Workers’ Compensation Claims For Head Injuries

Concussion Injury ● Headache & Vomiting ● Memory Loss ● Traumatic Brain Injury

Medical professionals will tell you brain damage is often the first injury to occur in an accident, but the last to be diagnosed. The harsh truth is many doctors simply don’t think to look deeply enough when treating an injured worker immediately following a work accident. Symptoms of a concussion, hematoma or other closed-head wounds can take days or weeks to surface, but last a lifetime. In many cases, the worker’s family, friends and co-workers are the first to notice symptoms of slurred speech, cognitive impairment and memory loss.

You Will Work Directly With Your Lawyer Throughout Your Case

If you were injured in a workplace accident anywhere in Iowa, chances are you qualify for medical treatment and disability wage benefits through your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance. Call the Iowa workers’ comp professionals at Loney & Schueller.

We do not refer out our cases or pass our clients around to associate attorneys or paralegals. At Loney & Schueller, you get direct access and personalized attention.

From offices in West Des Moines, our lawyers help injured workers with workers’ compensation claims in communities throughout the state. Call toll free 888-857-9266 or contact us by email to arrange a free consultation with one of our experienced Des Moines head injury lawyers.

Head injuries commonly occur in workplace accidents resulting from:

  • Falls from roofs, ladders, scaffolding and raised work platforms
  • Falling materials, products or equipment
  • Motor vehicle and construction equipment accidents
  • Severe electrical shock

Is A Loved One Showing Signs Of A Brain Injury After A Work Accident?

If your spouse or another family member is covered under an employer’s workers’ compensation insurance, he or she is entitled to receive paid medical treatment by a workers’ compensation-approved medical provider. Typically, workers must report a workplace accident and injuries immediately to receive workers’ compensation benefits. Brain injury symptoms, however, may not appear right away. If you notice symptoms such as blurred vision, change in personality, short-term memory loss or any other abnormality, have your loved one report the concerns to his or her employer and seek medical attention for a complete diagnosis right away.

Yes, you can afford a lawyer.
We do not ask for any money upfront from our clients. We get paid only a low percentage of the monetary damages we help you recover in a workers’ comp settlement. If we can’t help you obtain a settlement, you will not pay lawyers’ fees.

By helping them get maximum money benefits from every available option, we often help our clients receive significantly more money than if they had not hired us. Even after our fees, our clients generally come out ahead of where they would have been if they tried to handle the claim themselves.
