Kidwell & Gallagher LTD is an Elko, Nevada-based law firm specializing in workers' compensation cases. They serve clients throughout the state and will help you receive the resources you need to recover after an accident. 

Here, Kidwell & Gallagher LTD shares three things all workers' compensation recipients should know before they consider quitting their jobs:

• Quitting May Be Understandable…But It's Not Advisable: If a work injury has limited your ability to do your job, or if it has created tension with your employer, it’s understandable why you’d want to quit. But before you leave the company, understand the potential consequences you could face.
• The Consequences Can Vary Greatly: No two cases are totally alike. Because of this, there is no hard-and-fast rule that dictates how your case will be affected if you quit your job. What’s the best course of action? Consult a work injury lawyer. The professionals at Kidwell & Gallagher LTD are committed to helping you find solutions that give you the support and resources you need to live comfortably, earn a living, and recover from your injury.
• Get Legal Advice Before You Quit: It might be tempting to put in your notice or simply walk out the door and never look back. After all, dealing with the effects of an injury could very well feel like a full-time job. But no matter how appealing it might be to quit, before you do, talk to a workers' compensation lawyer. Kidwell & Gallagher LTD will give you all the information you need to understand your workers' compensation claim.
