If you’ve been injured at work, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits under South Carolina law. But getting those benefits especially when your employer or their insurance company pushes back isn’t always easy.
At Ted Law Firm, we help injured workers in Anderson and throughout Anderson County file claims, fight denials, and protect their rights. Whether your injury happened at a factory, a job site, a hospital, or an office, we’ll guide you through the process and make sure you’re not left to deal with this alone.
What Workers’ Compensation Covers in South Carolina
If your injury or illness is job-related, you’re likely entitled to:
- Medical care (doctor visits, hospital stays, surgery, physical therapy)
- Temporary total disability (TTD) a portion of your lost wages while you recover
- Permanent partial or total disability, if your injury leads to long-term impairment
- Mileage reimbursement for traveling to and from medical appointments
- Death benefits for families of workers who die from work-related injuries
You don’t have to prove your employer was at fault only that your injury happened while doing your job.
Common Workplace Injuries We Handle
Work injuries happen in every industry from manufacturing and construction to retail, education, and healthcare.
We represent workers with:
- Back, neck, and shoulder injuries
- Slips, trips, and falls
- Repetitive motion injuries (carpal tunnel, tendonitis)
- Knee or joint injuries
- Burns, electrical injuries, or chemical exposure
- Crush injuries or amputations from machinery
- Occupational diseases (hearing loss, lung damage)
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Fatal workplace accidents
If your job caused or worsened your condition, we can help you file a claim and make sure your treatment is covered.
What If Your Claim Was Denied?
Denials are common even for valid claims. Your employer or their insurance company may say:
- You didn’t report the injury in time
- The injury happened off the clock
- You didn’t follow company procedures
- You’re not as hurt as you say you are
We handle workers’ comp appeals in Anderson and across South Carolina. We’ll gather the evidence, deal with the insurance company, and represent you at hearings before the South Carolina Workers’ Compensation Commission.
