What is the deadline to file a workers comp claim in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts you generally have four years from the date of injury to file a claim. For occupational diseases the deadline is four years from when you knew or should have known the injury was work related. Missing this deadline can bar your claim.
Can I choose my own doctor for a workers comp injury in Bourne?
Yes under Massachusetts law you have the right to choose your own doctor for treatment. However the insurance company may require an independent medical examination to verify your injury. Your lawyer can help coordinate these requirements.
