October is National Protect Your Hearing Month. Years of working around loud machinery, power tools, or heavy equipment can cause permanent hearing loss. Construction, manufacturing, airport, and warehouse workers face some of the highest exposure. Occupational hearing loss may be covered under Florida workers' compensation, but these claims require strong medical documentation. If your hearing has changed because of your job, call 305-377-1505 for a free consultation.

Hurt on the way to work? In Florida, your normal commute to and from work generally is not covered by workers' compensation. There are exceptions, though. If you were traveling as part of your job, running an errand for your employer, or riding in employer-provided transportation, you may be covered. The details of your trip matter. Call 305-377-1505 and we can review your situation.

Are you covered by workers' compensation? In Florida, it depends on your industry. Construction employers with even one employee must carry coverage. Most other employers need coverage once they have four or more employees, and agricultural employers have their own thresholds. Being labeled an "independent contractor" does not always mean you are not an employee. Not sure where you stand? Call 305-377-1505 for a free consultation.

Wondering why your first wage check did not cover your first week out of work? Florida workers' compensation has a seven-day waiting period. Wage benefits generally are not paid for the first seven days of disability, unless your disability lasts more than 21 days. In that case, you can be paid for that first week too. Medical care is not subject to this waiting period. Call 305-377-1505 for a free consultation.

Driving to doctor visits, physical therapy, or the pharmacy for your work injury? Those miles add up. Under Florida workers' compensation, you may be able to request reimbursement for travel to authorized medical care. Keep a simple log with the date, the address, and the round-trip mileage for every appointment. 🚗 Questions about what you can claim? Call De Cardenas Freixas Stein & Zachary, P.A. at 305-377-1505.

After a workplace injury, the insurance adjuster may call and ask for a recorded statement. What you say can be used throughout your claim, so accuracy matters. Stick to the facts, do not guess or estimate, and do not downplay your pain. If you are unsure about a question, it is okay to say so. Before you give a recorded statement, talk to an attorney. Call 305-377-1505 for a free consultation.

September is National Preparedness Month, and for South Florida employers and workers, that includes hurricane season readiness. Storm cleanup, debris removal, and emergency repair work carry real injury risk. If you are hurt during storm-related work duties, workers' compensation protections still apply.

Call 305-377-1505 for a free consultation.

In Florida's workers' compensation system, your employer's insurance carrier typically selects your treating physician. If you disagree with your diagnosis or treatment plan, you may have the right to request a one-time change of physician or an independent evaluation. Do not assume you have no options.

Call 305-377-1505 for a free consultation.
