Red Bank is a municipality within Hamilton County, and its small municipal court has no role in workers’ compensation — these claims are handled by the state, not a city or county court. Disputed claims go to the Tennessee Bureau of Workers’ Compensation, and contested matters are decided by the Court of Workers’ Compensation Claims, whose nearby Chattanooga hearing site serves the area.

The Bureau and its court determine where your claim is handled; the substantive law lives in our statewide guides. Start with the Tennessee workers’ compensation hub and filing a workers’ comp claim, then review workers’ comp benefits or a workers’ comp settlement.
