First Responder Workers Compensation Claims in Ohio
Delivering Skilled Guidance at All Stages of the Process
When disasters or emergencies strike, first responders are on the scene to ensure those involved in the incident get the care and attention they need. And while these heroic individuals are trained and ready to jump into action, the situations they face put them at risk of serious on-the-job injuries. The medical expenses incurred from the harm they suffered can often be steep, and because it was a work-related injury, they might turn to workers' compensation to help cover the costs. Unfortunately, the claims process is complex and difficult to navigate, especially when a first responder is trying to recover from their injuries. In some cases, a workers' comp claim may not be honored at all.
If you're a first responder who was injured on the job, turn to the Law Office of Law Office of Zamora & Hogan Co., L.P.A. for the legal help you need to file your claim.

“Up front and honest”
Abbie has been nothing but amazing with my workman's comp claim. She is up front and honest about everything regarding my claim. She is down to earth and very approachable.

“Extremely knowledgeable”
Mr Zamura was extremely knowledgeable with all phases of my Ohio Police and Fire disability claim. He followed up on all aspects and made sure I was informed and up to date with everything going on. He was prompt at returning calls and emails if needed. His application paperwork was done very thoroughly which helped the process go much easier with the OP&F review board. His staff was great also. I would recommend him to anyone looking into a possible disability claim. I am from Akron and he is in Columbus. I only made 2 trips down to see him face to face. Everything else was done electronically or by phone.- Steve H. -

“ALWAYS treated me with kindness, dignity, & respect”
If I had to go through such a situation with BWC I’m forever grateful it was with these people walking through it together...Charles & his secretary Iesha & Danielle. They ALWAYS treated me with kindness, dignity, & respect. They treated my situation as if it just as important to them as it was to me. They ALWAYS made me feel like I was their only one... trust me they have many & for good reasons. It makes my heart happy knowing there are still hardworking wonderful people out there doing what they do & fighting for the right reasons because they genuinely care. I’ll always feel fortunate to have met them. 🙏❤️🙏- Erica -

Fighting to Protect Injured First Responders
First responders include EMTs, firefighters, ambulance drivers, police officers, paramedics, and others who help in emergencies. They are often called to dangerous and hazardous situations, such as car accidents, fires, and natural disasters.
Providing necessary assistance requires them to navigate these perils, which puts them at risk of various types of injuries, including, but not limited to:
- Broken bones
- Burns
- Concussions
- Respiratory injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Sprains
Some injuries might be noticeable immediately, while others may reveal themselves over time. Either way, when a first responder sustains harm because of their job, they have the right to file a claim and seek compensation.
