Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to report a workplace injury in Orlando?
Florida law requires that you report a workplace injury within 30 days. Failing to do so can lead to a denial of benefits. Report it as soon as possible to your employer or supervisor.
 
Can I choose my own doctor in an Orlando workers’ comp case?
Usually, your employer’s insurance chooses the doctor. If it is an emergency, you may go to the nearest ER, but otherwise, you must see an approved provider unless the insurer authorizes a change.
 
How much are workers’ comp wage benefits in Orlando?
Wage benefits are typically two thirds of your average weekly wage, subject to a statewide maximum. These may include temporary or permanent benefits depending on your situation.
 
Do I need a lawyer for my Orlando workers' comp case?
You are not required to hire a lawyer, but having one greatly increases your chances of getting full benefits — especially if your claim is delayed or complicated. Graves Law offers free consultations and charges no fees unless you recover compensation.
 
What if I was injured while working at a theme park or hotel in Orlando?
Theme parks, resorts, and hotels are common workplaces in Orlando. If you were injured while working in any of these environments, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. These types of claims often involve repetitive stress or slip and fall injuries. Contact a local attorney familiar with Orlando’s hospitality industry.
 
Can I get benefits for repetitive stress injuries in Orlando?
Yes. Conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or back pain caused by repetitive movements at work may qualify for workers’ compensation. You will need medical evidence showing that your injury is related to your job duties.
 
What should I do if my employer does not report my injury?
If your employer fails to report your injury to their insurance company, you can report it yourself or contact a workers’ comp lawyer to help file the appropriate paperwork and protect your rights.
