Workplace Injury Attorney
Protecting injured workers
Workplace injuries can leave you unable to work and facing mounting medical bills. Whether through workers' compensation or third-party liability claims, we help injured workers get the benefits and compensation they deserve.
When you're injured on the job in Kentucky, you're generally entitled to workers' compensation benefits regardless of fault. But workers' comp doesn't always cover everything. If a third party (not your employer) caused your injury, you may have additional claims for full compensation including pain and suffering.
The Heinrich Firm helps injured workers navigate the workers' compensation system and pursue third-party claims when applicable. We ensure you get the medical care you need, the wage replacement you're entitled to, and full compensation when someone other than your employer is responsible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about workplace injury attorney cases
Can I sue my employer for a workplace injury?
Generally no. Workers' compensation is typically your exclusive remedy against your employer. However, you can sue third parties whose negligence contributed to your injury, and you can pursue all available workers' comp benefits.
What if my workers' comp claim is denied?
You have the right to appeal. Denials often occur due to disputes about whether the injury is work-related or the extent of disability. We help with appeals and hearings before the workers' compensation board.
What is a third-party claim?
If someone other than your employer caused your workplace injury (like an equipment manufacturer, property owner, or driver), you may have a personal injury claim against them for full damages including pain and suffering.
How long do I have to file a workers' comp claim?
In Kentucky, you must report your injury to your employer as soon as possible and file a claim within two years of the injury or last payment of benefits.
