Protect Your Financial Future

It’s in your nature to help people. You’ve devoted your career to helping children by working in schools.

Now you’re the one who needs care after you got hurt at work. But you’re not getting the help you need.

Workers’ compensation benefits are supposed to be there for you, to cover your medical treatment and secure your life when you can’t work after an injury on the job.

You’d think that as a school district employee you would have this support. But workers’ comp is complicated. Benefits can be hard to get.

The experienced workers’ comp lawyers at Horenstein, Nicholson & Blumenthal can help you win the benefits you need to stay afloat. Our law firm has a 40-year history of fighting for people struggling with injuries—people just like you.

That’s why they say “Helping me, that’s HNB.”

    Hazards in School Jobs

    Injuries at school happen all the time. It can be as traumatic as an assault or as insidious as carpal tunnel syndrome.

    The attorneys at HNB have seen strains, sprains, herniated disks, head injuries, tendonitis, and more from school workers.

    It can happen to anyone working in a school:

    • Teachers
    • Teacher’s aides
    • School bus drivers
    • Cafeteria workers
    • Office administrators
    • Maintenance workers
    • Groundskeepers

    As soon as you experience a job-related injury, get medical attention, notify your supervisor, get a copy of your medical report, and file a workers’ comp claim, or make sure one is filed for you.

    Sometimes, if your injury was caused by the negligence of someone other than a coworker at the school, you may have both a workers’ comp claim and personal injury claim.

    The attorneys at HNB can evaluate your situation at no cost to you.

    HNB Helps You Get Maximum Benefits

    With a successful workers’ comp claim, you could receive these kinds of benefits:

    • Payment for lost wages
    • Compensation for reduced earning capacity
    • Medical costs
    • Career change counseling (vocational rehabilitation)
    • Permanent partial disability payment for lasting injuries
    • Lifetime total disability

    Sometimes your best option is negotiating a settlement that pays you in exchange for ending your claim.

    The decisions you face can seem overwhelming. But we can guide you through this process and handle all the legwork.

    HNB can represent you to your employer, the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC), and in appeals hearings before the Ohio Industrial Commission.

    All you want to do is get back to work doing what you love—helping children.

    Our job is to make sure you have everything you need to survive in the meantime.

    Don’t let your employer pressure you into taking a small amount or even not filing a claim at all. Make sure to protect your rights and get the maximum benefits available to you.

    HNB doesn’t represent employers or governments. We help individual people.

    They’ll have their lawyers—you need one, too.
