Navigating an on-the-job injury is confusing. We’re here to help.
You’ve been hurt and you don’t know when you’ll go back to work again. You think you’re going to get better “soon” but you’re not. Your supervisor keeps calling to find out when you’re going to get back to work. You’re worried that if you get fired, the benefits will stop. You’re worried that you will lose your health insurance. Your claims manager is making you jump through hoops you don’t understand.
We can’t tell you not to worry. But we can tell you we’re here to help. We’ve been down this path before with lots of other clients. We know how this works from start to finish. You’re not alone; we’re here to walk with you to the very end. Workers compensation is what we do.
Injured in an auto-accident? We’re on your side.
It wasn’t your fault, but you’re not sure what’s going to happen next. Will you fully recover or will there be lingering effects. How do you make sure that you are fully compensated for your injuries and your suffering? Now you’re getting calls from the other driver’s insurance and your own insurance asking questions, demanding answers, but you’re not sure if they’re just laying a trap to not justly and fully compensate you.

What has you worried?
medical treatment
Your doctor is asking for treatment, but your employer or the Department keeps saying no. As workers compensation attorneys, we help translate “doctor”-speak into “Department”-speak.
Retraining
You know you can’t go back to your job. Your doctor is telling you that you can’t go back to your job. But this vocational counselor is talking to you about retraining you to work in an office. You’re not sure what your options are. You’re not sure what your rights are. We know.
Time Loss benefits
Are your checks not showing up every two weeks? Are they too small? Have you been offered a light duty job and do not know what to do? We handle these problems every day.
Claim Closure
The Department is telling you that your claim is done. You’re not back at work. You’re still in pain. You thought this was suppose to fix you, get you back to where you started. It didn’t. You’re not alone.
Claim allowance
You got hurt on the job. You know, your doctor knows it. But the Department or your employer is telling you no. Whether it was a specific injury or a gradual onset, we help you talk to the Department so they know what you’re talking about.
Independent medical examinations
You’ve received a notice in the mail that you have to show up and get examined by the company doctors. You’re being told that if you don’t show up, your benefits will stop, you’ll owe them money. You don’t know what to do. We do.
