Sometimes a workers’ compensation claim is straightforward and you can handle it yourself. But when your employer or their insurance company challenges, disputes, or denies your claim, McCue Law Office is here to be your advocate. In Maine, all reasonable and proper medical treatment required because of a workplace injury or illness is covered — including doctor visits, hospital time, prescriptions, and mileage to appointments.
What our workers’ compensation attorneys can do for you:
A quick look at what may be available to you, depending on your situation.
For workers unable to work for a period but expected to return to full duties — total means you can't work at all; partial means you can work part time while healing.
For a permanent injury that prevents you from doing the work you did before. Total disability benefits can continue indefinitely; partial disability benefits eventually end.
Doctor visits, hospital bills, nursing care, medication, physical therapy, and other medical services related to your injury or illness.
Covers wages lost while you're unable to work because of a work-related injury, so you have the financial support to cover expenses while you heal.
Vocational rehabilitation is available in some cases for those who cannot return to the type of work they were doing before the injury or illness.
In the event of a work-related death, workers' compensation pays survivor benefits to eligible dependents.
Most cases settle outside of court, and we represent injured workers on a contingency fee basis — unless we recover compensation for you, you don’t pay us for our services. While most cases settle without a hearing, McCue Law Office has the experience to try cases before the Workers’ Compensation Board when necessary.
Statute of limitations: In Maine, workers’ compensation claims must generally be filed within two or six years, depending on the circumstances. After that window closes, you can no longer file a petition — so it’s important not to wait.
We proudly serve workers throughout Maine, including:
Free initial consultations, no risk to you — and no fee unless we recover for you.
