Work Injury Lawyer in Houston Helps File Non-Subscriber Claims

If you are injured at work and your employer does not subscribe to worker’s compensation insurance, you may need a work injury lawyer in Houston to assist you with filing a non-subscriber claim. Non-subscriber workplace injury claims are particularly difficult to manage, especially without professional help. Marc Whitehead & Associates are well-versed in the requirements of Texas worker’s compensation laws and understand how to bring pressure on employers who attempt to avoid workplace injury claims.

The State of Texas requires employers who do not subscribe to worker’s compensation to maintain an injury benefits insurance policy, and these employers also have strict reporting requirements:

They must report their lack of coverage to the Texas Department of Insurance Department of Worker’s Compensation and to the employee upon the employee’s hiring.

If they have five or more employees, they must report all work-related illnesses or injuries to the TDI-DWC. They must report their lack of coverage in writing to the employee upon hire and post the same information in a conspicuous place in the workplace.

Failure to comply with the reporting requirements subject the employer to penalties.

Companies that opt not to subscribe to state worker's compensation policies can be difficult to deal with when a Houston work injury occurs. Although these non-subscribing companies are required to maintain an injury benefits policy, it may be tricky to collect when you become injured. The work injury lawyers at Marc Whitehead & Associates have dealt with hundreds of non-subscriber claims to get injured workers the benefits they deserve. We'll help you collect for workplace injury claims including medical expenses, lost income, future income, disability and long term care.

If you've been injured and your employer does not subscribe to state worker's compensation, call or email a worker injury lawyer in Houston at Marc Whitehead & Associates. We will review your claim and help you get the compensation you deserve.
