A serious work injury can put your health and your paycheck at risk at the same time. If you were hurt on the job in Lower Paxton Township, we help you claim the medical care and wage loss benefits Pennsylvania law provides.
For more than 34 years, Lerner, Steinberg & Associates has fought for injured workers across Pennsylvania, and you work directly with Mike Lerner or Ben Steinberg on every case, never a paralegal. Lower Paxton Township is part of our Dauphin County workers’ compensation practice, one of the many areas we serve across the Harrisburg region. There is no fee unless we win.
Lower Paxton is one of the busiest work centers in Dauphin County. From the retail stores and restaurants along the Colonial Park corridor and Jonestown Road, to the warehouses and delivery routes near I-81, to the medical offices and trades crews working across Linglestown and Union Deposit Road, thousands of people here face on-the-job hazards every day. A single injury can stop your income overnight, and Pennsylvania workers’ compensation is meant to cover your treatment and part of your wages while you heal.
We handle every kind of work injury for Lower Paxton workers, including the following.
Slips, burns, and lifting injuries in the stores and eateries along the Colonial Park and Route 22 corridor.
Lifting strain, forklift accidents, and falls at the distribution sites near I-81.
Back and shoulder injuries from moving patients, repetitive strain, and needlestick exposure.
Carpal tunnel and joint damage that build up from repeated motion on the job or at a desk.
Crashes involving delivery drivers and trades workers who drive as part of the job.
Falls on wet floors, ice, and uneven surfaces that cause fractures, head injuries, and back damage.
Your employer’s insurance must pay for the care and wage replacement you are owed after a work injury. Benefits include all reasonable and necessary medical treatment, wage loss benefits equal to about two-thirds of your average weekly wage, specific loss benefits for the permanent loss of a body part or for serious scarring, and death benefits for the families of workers killed on the job. You only have to show that you were hurt while working.
Insurers deny and cut off valid claims all the time. If your benefits were denied or stopped, you can challenge that decision through a denial of benefits appeal and a workers’ comp hearing before a judge. We build the medical and wage evidence and stand with you through the whole process. We also handle repetitive stress injury and occupational disease claims that insurers often fight hardest.
Pennsylvania sets firm deadlines, and missing one can end your right to benefits.
You can review the official program through the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry, then call us for guidance on your own claim.
For more than three decades, Mike Lerner and Ben Steinberg have handled workers’ compensation cases for people throughout the Harrisburg area, and they work on every claim personally. They know how insurers value injuries and how to push for the full medical care and wage loss benefits the law allows, and we work on a contingency basis, so you owe no fee unless we win.
If you were hurt on the job in Lower Paxton Township, we are ready to review your claim and tell you honestly where you stand. Contact Lerner, Steinberg & Associates today for a free consultation.
