Post Falls Idaho Work Accident

Injured Idaho workers regularly call our office complaining that their employer won’t file a work injury claim with the Idaho Industrial Commission or the workers’ compensation insurance carrier.

If your employer won’t file a work injury claim, your Idaho workers’ compensation claim more difficult than it should be.

If you’ve suffered an Idaho work comp injury, and your employer won’t file a claim, The Idaho Industrial Commission recommends:

“Contact the Industrial Commission immediately to report this activity and to request a First Report of Injury form. Completely filling out and filing the First Report of Injury with the Commission will register your claim.”

You can also contact an experienced Idaho workers’ compensation lawyer to learn your rights and see if you need legal help. At Goicoechea Law, LLC, we help Idaho’s injured workers in all phases of the work injury process – from filing the notice of injury to taking your case to the Idaho Supreme Court.
