We’re here to help you understand your rights and guide you through every step of the legal process.
At HLH, you’ll never pay out of pocket for our services. We’re paid directly by the workers’ compensation insurance carrier or from a settlement—never from your own funds. Call 239-232-5050 today for your free consultation and let us fight for the benefits you deserve.
You May Be Entitled to Compensation
Workers’ compensation laws are designed to protect employees who are injured on the job. If your case qualifies, you may be eligible to receive compensation for lost wages, medical expenses, and permanent impairments. To protect your rights, it’s important to take the right steps immediately after the accident.
After a workplace injury,
be sure to:
Get medical attention right away.
Take photos of the accident scene and your injuries.
Report the injury to your employer.
Fill out an official accident report.
Schedule a consultation with our legal team.
In Naples, FL, and surrounding areas, you generally have two years from the date of the accident—or one year from your last medical treatment—to file a workers’ compensation claim. You may still qualify even if you no longer work for the same employer.
Talk to the attorneys at HLH Law Group today to protect your rights and start your claim.
You May Be Entitled to the Following Workers’ Compensation Benefits
Medical Benefits
Your employer is responsible for covering 100% of medical treatment costs if the work-related injury is the major contributing cause. However, certain exceptions may apply if legal procedures are not followed correctly. Call HLH today to ensure your rights are protected and you receive the full benefits you’re entitled to.
Lost Wage Benefits
If your injury prevents you from working, you may qualify for compensation to cover lost wages. These benefits can be temporary or permanent, depending on your ability to return to work and whether your employer can offer a position within your medical restrictions. Contact HLH today to better understand your eligibility and options.
Impairment Benefits
If your injuries result in a permanent condition, you may be entitled to impairment benefits. These payments are determined by a workers’ compensation physician based on the severity of your condition and the date of the accident. HLH Law Group can help ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Your Personal Injury Legal Questions Answered
What Steps Should I Take Right After a Personal Injury Accident?
After an accident, get medical attention right away, document the scene with photos and witness details, and contact a personal injury attorney promptly to protect your rights and build your case.
What is the Deadline for Filing a Personal Injury Claim?
In Florida, you typically have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim. However, certain factors can affect this timeline, so it's best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure your rights are protected.
What types of damages can I recover in a personal injury case?
You may be entitled to recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, property damage, and, in some cases, punitive damages. Every case is unique, so an attorney can help determine which damages apply to your situation.
Do I have to pay upfront for legal representation?
No, most personal injury attorneys—like us—work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront. We only get paid if we win your case or secure a settlement for you.
How long will it take to settle my personal injury case?
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of your injuries, and whether a settlement is reached or a trial is necessary. Some cases settle in a few months, while others may take a year or more. Your attorney will work to resolve your case as efficiently and fairly as possible.
What happens if the insurance company offers me a settlement?
Don’t accept a settlement without speaking to an attorney first. Insurance companies often offer low amounts to close cases quickly. A personal injury attorney can review the offer, assess the true value of your claim, and negotiate to ensure you receive fair compensation.
Can I still file a claim if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Yes, under Florida’s comparative negligence law, you may still recover damages even if you were partially at fault—as long as you are not more than 50% responsible. Your compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault. An attorney can help determine how this applies to your case.
We provide dedicated legal representation for personal injury cases. Our experienced attorneys work tirelessly to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve. Contact us today for a free consultation. Your recovery is our priority.
