After an Iowa Work Injury Fall Accident: Eligibility for Compensation

A fall injury or accident can be one of the most damaging mishaps that can occur in the workplace. A fall accident can result in serious injuries that cause a great deal of pain, or even disability, and you may be unable to work for a long time. If you or a loved one fell at work in Iowa and sustained injuries then you should learn about your rights.

If you have been inured at work in a fall accident in Iowa, you may be eligible for compensation in an Iowa Workers' Compensation claim. In fact, most employees who are injured while on the job in Iowa, and who work under contract of hire in the state, or whose principal place of employment is in Iowa, are eligible for Workers' Compensation benefits.

Therefore, if you have been injured in a scaffold accident or other work injury in Iowa, and your injuries prevent you from returning to work, you may be eligible for compensation for:

your medical expenses (as they reasonably relate to your workplace injury);

any permanent injury or disability; and
any wages you have lost.

To learn more about what to do when you are injured in a fall accident and your options for compensation, please visit our article library.

Attorney Review

Aaron of Clinton says "very trust worthy, knowledgeable and made me very comfortable with this case as I never had a Worker Comp case before. He always returned my calls and e-mails in a timely manner and answered every question I had as I had a lot of them. His books were very useful to me in this case as well."
