Being involved in any car or motor vehicle accident is stressful and emotionally taxing. Not only can it result in significant injuries to you or your loved ones, but medical care and vehicle repairs can be costly. If you are a traveling employee or someone who needs transportation as part of their job, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits – especially if you’ve recently been injured in a car or motor vehicle accident. It’s not unusual for insurance companies to do whatever they can to deny your claim, which is why it’s crucial to have an expert on your side from Mottaz & Sisk Personal Injury.
