I was driving through Atlanta late one night. Almosts got into an accident and was then pulled over. The officer had me get out of the car and had me do field evaluations. I was taken to jail for DUI. I hired Mr. Kevin Fisher and he was able to get the DUI changed to a much better outcome. Thank you Kevin. I appreciate your guidance.

I got a pretty bad speeding ticket because I was late going to my pregnant wife’s appointment to meet the specialist because she had a high risk pregnancy. The ticket I received was also a super speeder. My job requires that I have a clean record. I hired Kevin and he was able to help me get a great outcome. No points, no reporting to my MVR, this helps SO much because I work and drive a company vehicle for an insurance company. Kevin made the process very easy and seamless. Out of FOUR lawyers that I contacted, Kevin was the only one who was responsive, he was up front about his pricing and steps that I would need to take going forward. Most lawyers are lazy but not Kevin. I would hire Kevin again if ever needed his services! Thanks for the hard work Kevin!

I would highly recommend attorney Sasan and the Nemat Law team as I reached out to him to help with a complex landlord situation, and they handled it with exceptional professionalism and care. From the moment I contacted them, they acted swiftly on the same day, ensuring that everything was addressed in a timely manner. Their deep knowledge of landlord-tenant laws was evident throughout the process, and they explained every step in clear, understandable terms. What really stood out was their patience and understanding. They took the time to listen to my concerns, answer all my questions, and guide me toward the best possible outcome.

While searching for an attorney, I went beyond my vicinity in search of one that is unbiased. My initial call to Mr. Gardner was impressive; his mannerism and professionalism gained my confidence; an instinct that he was skilled and knowledgeable in Workers Compensation Laws. He analyzed my case, provided feedback and Sandra answered any questions that I needed answers to. He no longer wanted to entertain the defense attorneys perpetuation and reached a settlement where we both can say ching, ching! I will gladly endorse Mr.Gardner.

He did an excellent job of preparing me step by step for what was next and, provided me with constant feedback. He made me feel comfortable and confident about my situation. If there was something he was not sure of he found the answer. His past experience and relationships with the PSC allowed him to help me navigate my way through a stressful situation, which ended up in a very favorable and positive outcome.

I had experienced an injury on the job and attempted to navigate the process on my own. Unfortunately, the process was more difficult than I thought and the insurance company was not being very responsive. I was referred to Michael and from the first meeting I felt very comfortable about his representation. He made sure to explain each step of the process and was very responsive whenever I had questions. Because of Michael's representation, I received a very favorable settlement that I would not have received had I not hired Michael. I would highly recommend anyone who is dealing with workers compensation to hire Michael as their attorney. You will not regret it.

My teenaged son, while intelligent in many aspects of life, made a very bad decision and was arrested along with a couple of friends for drug possession (felony) & alcohol (minor in possession). Doug represented me in another case & delivered very favorable results so I was confident when I approached him with my son’s case. Doug took my son and another boy’s case and represented them as co-defendents. Doug worked with a State Prosecutor in/out of court for a weeks, and in the end their cases were dismissed. The boys were required to attend drug and alcohol classes & complete community service hours. Needless to say, my wife, son & I were more than pleased with the outcome! Doug held our hand and explained to us in detail what to expect in every step of the legal process. In the courtroom he’s a calm and collective & is well respected by his peers. Watching him interact/work in the courtroom ensured us we made the right decision to his firm to represent our then high school aged son.

I was more than satisfied with Babson Law Firm. I was very unhappy with my original lawyers and ended up changing to Rocky’s law firm and thank GOD I did!! He handled any concern promptly and went over and beyond for me. He treated me like a friend or family member more than a client. He even drove over an hour away from his home to attend a Drs. appointment with me. He worked his tail off and got me everything I deserved and I could never thank him enough. I would recommend Babson Law Firm to everyone! Rocky was born to be a lawyer! He’s the best!!!!

I came to Rocky with a work injury. I injured my shoulder while working for a commercial developer. What started as a bad dislocation ended up being a torn rotator cuff. I also had a neck injury with my cervical spine. Unfortunately my employer was not the shining star I needed them to be when I was injured. When I got in touch with Rocky my mind was IMMEDIATELY at ease. More importantly, he put my family at ease. My employer's insurance company did not want to pay for my surgery and Rocky fought them all the way until the morning of court - they relented rather than lose to this BULLDOG OF AN ATTORNEY. Rocky fought every step of the way for me and my family. He did not give up. He did not take their crap. Had it not been for Rocky I am sure I would still be in a world of hurt and confusion over this entire mess. Rocky....thank you for what you did. I hope I never have a friend or family member who has a workers compensation claim, but if I do, they will hire you. Rocky got me $190,000 for my case. I am 100% satisfied with everything he did. Thank you!

He worked diligently on my years-long case, always keeping me informed of the next step in the process. He took the time to meet with me and advise me on my options.

Doug came highly, HIGHLY recommended by a friend, characterizing him as a bulldog and will never surrender his client's due...under any circumstances, and I had engaged Doug, after having had an egregious experience with another firm. From our first meeting, Doug has ensured that I was well-healed on the dynamics and macinations that would ensure, throughout my case. Each time that Doug and I have met to discuss my case and strategic considerations, there has never, ever been so much as a hint of we all tend to project onto his industry, mostly distrust and self-centered objectives. He is unbelievably responsive, no matter what time of day that I send emails. (When the Hades does he ever sleep?!!!) If anyone needs an attorney who is like a bulldog, Doug isn't your man, but, if you need an attorney who can slit a throat, without bleeding being detected, Doug gets the job done in a way that makes you feel good about having to do the things warranted, whenever doing legal battle has become unavoidable.

I have worked with several law firms in the past, as a paralegal, and the services we received from Montlick & Associates were truly exceptional. They were on top of every detail of my case, from my very first phone call. We really appreciated the way they really wanted to understand and consider every detail of what happened and our injuries, to do the best job possible. And when the adjuster gave them a lowball offer, they stood strong and fought hard to get us what we deserved. We were kept well informed, they always gladly answered by questions and were great about returning our phone calls. My husband and I felt that they treated us more like family or close friends. You just don't get that kind of service anymore, and we are so grateful. In our book, Montlick & Associates are the best auto accident attorneys in Atlanta, hands down!

Montlick & Assoc got the job done on my case. The attorneys at Montlick & Associates treat you like family and really worked my case beyond all my expectations. I really didn't want to hire a law firm, but I was getting pushed around by the insurance company and decided that I needed an experienced firm to handle my case. The best decision I ever made. The second best decision was calling for a free case review with the Montlick & Assoc. I pretty much didn't have to do much after the first call. They handled everything and got me a more then fair settlement in no time. Wow! I just had to say thanks to Montlick & Assoc. Don't try it alone and choose an experienced firm like Montlick & Assoc and you will be happy you did.

I hired Doug to make sure my workers comp. case was handled properly. He exceeded my expectations in many ways. When I contacted him I had been going through the case alone for almost 2 years. I thought it was pretty much wrapped up the doctors were pretty much done with what they could do at my age. I just had to live with the rest until science advanced was my answer. When I hired Doug that answer was not good enough for him. He got me sent to better doctors in Atlanta and which all in all ended in a better result and I received a spinal cord stimulator which helped a lot more then being told to deal with it till science advances. Doug is very thorough and knowledgeable with his craft. If I could go back and do it again the only thing I would change is I would hire him sooner!

I was not going to comment out of respect to a friend who does a lot of business with you all, but since you responded I will. I respectfully deny your request to call. If I do call, I will not get an answer. The same thing goes for an email. If we do talk, you will not listen to what I am communicating to you. If I am ever forced to do business with you all again, it will only be out of respect to the person I am referring to who prefers to close with you. Maybe the process will go better when you realize who that is. Unfortunately, I am not a fan of people who treat people based off who they think they are. You either practice equality or you do not, there is no in between. I can only speak on my experience. You do have some great people working with you. I wish you all the best. God bless.

My names is Ismeta and Mr. Maniscalco has been representing my husband for 21 years. My husband had a traumatic brain injury when he was struck in the head by a metal object at work. My husband was only 41 years old and I was only 36 at the time of his injury. We lived in an apartment with our two young children (ages 11 and 17). We had immigrated to the United States from our country due to a civil war and we had only been in the United States for two years when my husband suffered his life changing injury. The insurance company denied my husband’s treatment claiming that it was pre-existing. Mr. Maniscalco fought the insurance company every step of the way and literally saved my husband’s life. Mr. Maniscalco has given our family another chance and if it was not for his legal expertise my children would for sure be left without a father at a very young age. The surgeries that my husband needed were absolutely necessary for him to continue to live and were something that we could have never afforded. After my husband’s accident, our lives were turned upside down (financially, emotionally and in every possible sense). We did not know the rules and laws of Workers Comp but Mr. Maniscalco helped us navigate the system and get my husband to the right doctors. We cannot thank Mr. Maniscalco enough and there are no words to express our gratitude for all his hard work that he has done and that he continues to do, we are forever indebted to him. He has never given up on us or gotten tired of representing us and he has continued to fight for us just as he did on day one. To have a client for 21 years with such a complex injury and for us to never have one single complaint is truly an accomplishment, we highly recommend Mr. Maniscalco to anyone that has a legal need. He is very knowledgeable and very well respected among the medical professionals that we have dealt with. Most of all, he is extremely compassionate and cares very much about his clients and he has been our only light throughout this whole ordeal.

Last year 07/10/15 I hired Mr. Morgan Medders to represent me in a criminal case. Prior to having representation, I was depressed and uncertain , not knowing where to look or to go but as I looked on Google for lawyers , I ended up finding angels in disguise. When I talked to Mr. Medders on July 10th of last year he made me feel way better about my situation and calmed me down when I would get un easy. My case was dismissed thanks to the incredible work of Mr. Morgan Medders and all of the Cohen Law Firm attorney's. Mr. Medders proved my innocence and I will forever be grateful to him. I consider Mr. Morgan Medders and The Cohen Law Firm as family, and I highly recommend them to represent you. Thank You.

After working with Attorney Rucker I can firmly attest that he is the absolute best litigation and Trial Attorney in the state. My case was dropped by a prior Attorney so to reach the final outcome of a very successful jury verdict of $250,000 from an injury feels like total vindication. I would not have this outcome if it were not for his personal expertize, determination and regard that he showed to my situation from the moment I retained him. No other Attorneys in the state would take my difficult case. Watching him in court I witnessed a truly smart professional who is a master of his craft. He cares and he has a powerful skillset as a litigator that he utilizes to his clients greatest advantage in order to ensure that his clients no longer have to suffer from the many impacts of an injury caused by another.

What a Workers’ Compensation Lawyer Can Do for You

A workers’ compensation lawyer specializes in helping employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their job to receive the benefits they are entitled to under workers' compensation laws. These lawyers represent injured workers in claims for medical benefits, wage replacement, and other compensation related to workplace injuries or illnesses. They also help when claims are denied, benefits are delayed, or disputes arise with the employer or the insurance company.

Whether you've been injured on the job, developed an occupational illness, or are dealing with a denied workers' compensation claim, a workers’ compensation lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and ensure you receive the full benefits you deserve.

When Should I Hire a Workers' Compensation Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a workers' compensation lawyer in several situations, especially when complications arise during the claims process or when your rights as an injured worker are being challenged. Some common reasons to hire a workers' compensation lawyer include:

  • Claim denial: If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, a lawyer can help you appeal the decision and represent you in hearings or litigation.
  • Inadequate benefits: If the insurance company offers you a settlement that doesn’t cover your medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf for a fair amount.
  • Delay in receiving benefits: If your benefits are being delayed, a lawyer can help expedite the process to ensure you receive timely compensation.
  • Permanent disability: If your injury leads to permanent disability (partial or total), a lawyer can help you navigate the more complex process of securing long-term benefits.
  • Retaliation by employer: If your employer retaliates against you for filing a workers' compensation claim (e.g., by firing or demoting you), a lawyer can protect your rights and pursue legal action.
  • Third-party liability: If a third party (e.g., a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for your injury, a lawyer can help you pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
  • Pre-existing conditions: If your employer or the insurance company claims that your injury is related to a pre-existing condition, a lawyer can help you present evidence showing that the injury was work-related.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can prevent delays, avoid mistakes, and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to under workers' compensation law.

What Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Do?

A workers' compensation lawyer provides a range of legal services to injured workers, ensuring that they receive the benefits they deserve. Their tasks often include:

  • Filing claims: Helping injured workers prepare and file their workers' compensation claims to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
  • Appealing denied claims: Representing workers whose claims have been denied and guiding them through the appeals process, including hearings and court appearances.
  • Negotiating settlements: Negotiating with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
  • Handling disputes: Resolving disputes between the injured worker, the employer, and the insurance company regarding the amount of compensation or the nature of the injury.
  • Coordinating medical evidence: Gathering and presenting medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to support the workers' compensation claim.
  • Advocating for benefits: Ensuring that injured workers receive all the benefits they’re entitled to, including temporary or permanent disability benefits, vocational rehabilitation, and medical treatment.
  • Filing third-party lawsuits: In cases where a third party is responsible for the injury, a workers' compensation lawyer may also pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover additional damages.

How Are Workers’ Compensation Lawyers Paid?

Workers' compensation lawyers typically charge a contingency fee, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover benefits for you. This fee is usually a percentage of the benefits awarded, and the specific percentage is often regulated by state law. Here's how it generally works:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer's fee is typically between 15% and 25% of the total benefits awarded to you. You don’t have to pay any upfront legal fees, and the lawyer’s fee comes out of the settlement or benefit award.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t recover any benefits for you, you generally don’t have to pay for their services.
  • State regulations on fees: Many states cap the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge, and some states require the fee to be approved by the workers' compensation board or judge.

Be sure to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Workers' Compensation Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a workers' compensation lawyer typically depends on the contingency fee arrangement, meaning the lawyer’s fee will be a percentage of the benefits you receive. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fees: Most workers' compensation lawyers charge between 15% and 25% of the total settlement or benefits awarded. For example, if you receive $50,000 in benefits, the lawyer’s fee would range from $7,500 to $12,500.
  • State regulations: Some states limit the percentage that workers' compensation lawyers can charge. In these cases, the fee is usually capped, often at 20% to 25%, depending on state law.
  • Additional costs: Some lawyers may charge for out-of-pocket expenses, such as filing fees, medical records retrieval, and expert witness testimony, though these costs are typically deducted from the settlement after the case is won.

You should always ask for a clear explanation of fees and potential additional costs during your consultation so you understand the financial arrangement.

Top Questions to Ask a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Before hiring a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with workers' compensation cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your injury is severe or the case involves disputes.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and whether there are any additional costs you need to be aware of.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Find out if the lawyer has experience dealing with cases involving similar injuries or disputes, such as denied claims or permanent disability.
  5. How long will the process take?
    While it’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, the lawyer should be able to provide a general estimate based on their experience with similar cases.
  6. Will you personally handle my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your claim.

How to Check the Credibility of a Workers' Compensation Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable workers' compensation lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no disciplinary actions against them.
  • Look for workers' compensation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in workers' compensation law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and service.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience in workers' compensation cases.
  • Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the Workers' Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILG) or local bar association committees on workers' compensation can indicate the lawyer’s commitment to this area of law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most out of your first consultation with a workers' compensation lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Accident report or incident documentation: Bring any documentation related to your workplace injury or illness, including accident reports or notifications to your employer.
  • Medical records: Provide copies of medical records, including treatment notes, doctor’s reports, and any information related to your injury or condition.
  • Employer correspondence: Bring any letters, emails, or forms related to your claim from your employer or the workers' compensation insurance company.
  • Wage and benefits information: Provide information on your wages, benefits, and any lost income due to the injury.
  • List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the process, costs, and what to expect moving forward.
  • Timeline of events: Prepare a timeline of the incident, your injury, and any medical treatment or communication with your employer and the insurance company.

Being well-prepared for your consultation will allow the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide you with the best possible legal advice.
