On the Job Injury Lawyer:
Covenant Transport and U.S. Express
Serving Chattanooga, Tennessee
Although the Workers' Compensation system was set up with an eye to protect both workers and employers in the event of an accident on the job, not everyone realizes the benefits allowed under Tennessee Workers' Compensation law.
Covenant Transport and U.S. Express employ drivers nationwide, but often when these drivers are injured on the job, Tennessee law demands that you file your claim in Chattanooga, Tennessee. If you work for Covenant Transport or U.S. Express, it's a good idea to get sound legal advice to help you untangle all laws that may apply.
These companies may give you a list of doctors in Chattanooga, then force you to stay in a motel while you're waiting for treatment. Then, they may try to force you to accept "light" duty work in Chattanooga or another remote terminal, hundreds of miles away from your family. They employ case managers who seek to control your entire life during your treatment. You may unwittingly commit a violation of workers' compensation law that removes them from having to pay your benefits.
You have rights under Tennessee law. Contact Herbert Thornbury, Esquire from anywhere at 1-800-506-8258 to find out how you can be protected.
