The system provides that you can be compensated, even if the injury was due to your own carelessness, but in exchange for doing away with the requirement that the employee prove liability, there is no way to recover pain and suffering.

Because of these limitations, retaining an Atlanta Workers Compensation Lawyer early after a serious injury is a wise move. Employers have a panel of accepted physicians and unfortunately these doctors will not bite the hand that feeds them.
