MARYLAND WORKERS COMP LAWYER
Injured on the Job? We Don’t Just File Claims — We FIGHT for Benefits.
Maryland’s Workers’ Compensation laws are supposed to protect injured workers — but too often, insurance companies delay, deny, or underpay. At The Law Office of Marc J. Atas & Associates, we don’t let that happen.
We know the tactics these insurance companies use. They have adjusters and attorneys trained to protect THEIR bottom line — not your recovery.
They’re not on your side. We are.
If You’re Hurt at Work, You Have Rights. Let’s Enforce Them.
You’re entitled to:
- Top-quality medical treatment
- Wage replacement while you’re unable to work
- Permanent injury compensation
- Vocational retraining, if needed
- Reimbursement for travel and expenses
- Lifetime medical coverage (unless closed by settlement)
- Death benefits for surviving family members
And most importantly — you’re entitled to an attorney who knows how to win.
Why Clients Trust Marc Atas With Their Future:
With over 40 years of proven courtroom experience, Attorney Marc J. Atas has represented injured workers across every industry — from construction crews and correctional officers to healthcare workers and state employees.
Whether you’re a Maryland state worker, a union laborer, or a newly hired warehouse employee — we’ve got your back.
We Know the System. We Know the Commissioners. We Know How to Win.
We Handle All Types of Work Injury Claims
There are two major types of claims:
- Accidental Injury – One-time incidents like falls, crashes, or equipment failures.
- Occupational Disease – Long-term exposure or repetitive trauma (like carpal tunnel or asbestos exposure).
Many injuries outside the workplace may still qualify as work-related. Let us evaluate your claim for free.
We’ve Fought For Clients With Injuries Like:
- Spinal cord and back injuries
- Knee, ankle, shoulder, and wrist trauma
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Crushing injuries and amputations
- Occupational illnesses
- Brain injuries
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Construction and industrial accidents
You Pick the Doctor — Not the Insurance Company
Maryland law gives YOU the right to choose your treating doctor. If your physician won’t see you without insurer approval, we’ll connect you with top-tier medical providers who will treat you without delay or pre-authorization.
How Much Does a Workers’ Comp Lawyer Cost?
You pay NOTHING upfront.
Attorney fees are:
- Set by the Maryland Workers’ Compensation Commission
- Paid out of your permanent injury award (not from your pocket)
- Only paid if we win you money
There are no hourly fees, no retainers, and no consultation costs — ever.
What’s My Workers’ Compensation Claim Worth?
Your benefits may include:
- Temporary Total Disability (lost wages while recovering)
- Temporary Partial (wage difference if on light duty)
- Permanent Partial or Total Disability
- Vocational Rehabilitation
- Medical treatment for life (unless settled)
- Mileage and prescription reimbursement
We maximize every dollar — period.
Fired After Filing a Claim? Not So Fast.
It is a criminal offense in Maryland to fire someone for filing a workers’ comp claim.
If your job disappears while you’re recovering, we fight for:
- Vocational retraining
- Lost wage benefits
- Return-to-work support
Keep your employer informed. Be proactive. We’ll handle the rest.
We Know the Tricks Insurance Companies Use — And How to Beat Them.
They delay care. They deny wage benefits. They demand you see their doctor. Not with us.
If they refuse treatment or payments, we take them to court. We’ve done it hundreds of times. We win. We get results.
Real Answers to Your Most Urgent Questions
How long does a case take?
Every case is unique. Some settle quickly. Others take longer. The timeline depends on treatment, recovery, and insurer cooperation. We guide you every step of the way.
How are lost wages calculated?
You receive two-thirds of your average weekly wage (based on your last 14 weeks of pay), tax-free.
Who pays for my medical care?
The workers’ comp insurance company — for life, if needed. You can choose your doctor.
What if I need surgery later?
If your case is open, you can receive additional treatment. If settled, we negotiate a Medicare Set Aside to protect your future needs.
Can I still file?
You typically have two years from the date of injury (or knowledge of the condition) to file. Contact us now to protect your rights.
