Ty Wilson Law Podcast

Think it's too late to report your work injury? Don't assume you've lost your rights.

In this episode, Georgia workers' compensation attorney Ty Wilson explains what happens when an injury isn't reported right away, why Georgia's 30-day notice rule matters, and when a late-reported claim may still be valid. He also discusses common reasons employees delay reporting injuries, the risks of relying on health insurance instead of workers' compensation, and the types of evidence that can strengthen your case.

If your employer denied your claim because you reported your injury late, don't assume your case is over. Every situation is different, and you may still have legal options.
