I can’t say enough GREAT things about Rooth Law Firm and the INCREDIBLE team. From the moment I stepped into their office, I was greeted with warmth, enthusiasm, and sincerity. Joe was so attentive, offering expert advice on my care and well being. He EXCEEDED my expectations by far and always went above and beyond. Sharon was always GREAT to deal with as well as she had the patience of a saint with my numerous questions and telephone calls. She also would go above and beyond. Also Becky I have to thank for taking messages and getting my calls returned back promptly. I can’t put into words how grateful I am for Rooth Law Firm and their work is TRULY OUTSTANDING, and I strongly recommend them for any worker compensation needs. If I could give them 100 stars I would!!

I strongly recommend Michael Kaplan of Kaplan Morrell, for any workers compensation issue. The company I was involved with put forward an incredibly low settlement offer, and Mr. Kaplan, recognizing this, went to work to get a fair settlement. The settlement he negotiated was 4 times more than their original offer, and I couldn’t be more pleased. He and his assistant, Tammy, are client focused and provide superb service. John W.

Him and his staff helped me through a very difficult time dealing with my work injury. His paralegal Tammy was always there for me and I owe her a debt of gratitude. Thank you Michael for being not just an attorney working on my behalf, but being a friend.

Michael Kramer provided excellent counsel. His experience with GA PSC and his wise understanding of legal matters enhanced his deep commitment to represent good educators dedicated to their professions. His handing of my case produced a fairer outcome than what would have been. Michael is a terrific choice to represent educators when negotiating with GA PSC.

Michael's legal knowledge of public education and certification issues with the PSC and his ability to work with the Attorney General's office was outstanding. 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.

The team at Goff Law Group truly went above and beyond in handling my personal injury claim. They diligently explained every situation in detail to me and answered all of my questions. Melanie, the paralegal assigned to my case was very detailed oriented and responsive to any need. I had the pleasure of dealing with Attorney Annette Smith who, from the very start, was upfront and realistic regarding the situation and expectations. In the end the group maximized my claim--for which I am very grateful. I was very fortunate to fall into the care of the Goff Law Group, and I would recommend them to anyone in need of a law firm to handle a personal injury matter.

I did not deal directly with Brook Goff, but did with her firm. I had a couple of lawyers, and they didn't work out. The one that did was Tiffany Sabato. She was stellar! Called me with information, called if she needed more information, kept me up to date on what was going on. I live out of state, but my accident took place in CT. It was reassuring to know that someone was watching out for me. Thanks again Tiffany for all your hard work, but happy I hope to never have to use a lawyer for the rest of my life.

I had a tremendous experience with attorney Joe Culgin . From the first time I spoke with him he made me feel at ease . As I explained to him how and why my workers comp case was denied after being a loyal hard working manager for 22 years he took on my case . Everything he said he would do he did . Backpay . Benefits . Till the day the case was settled a year later and a settlement followed . Joe is always extremely professional and knowledgeable. Having experience on both the insurance side as well as the legal side was a huge asset for me . I would 1000 percent recommend him to anyone in need of a workers comp attorney. Joe is the best !!!

It was very frustrating to find an attorney that could handle our case. Atty Daddario was just a random find on Google. We initially hired him to take on our case because he won a majority of his cases. As time progressed, it was apparent that Atty Daddario wasn't just a random atty, but someone with the best intentions for our case. He provided us with all the necessary information and details every step of the way. As we got closer to the court date for the hearing, it was nerve wracking. However, Atty Daddario assured us that it would be okay. He was right. Everything went smoothly, and there was nothing to be anxious about. I was very impressed with how professional and knowledgeable Atty Daddario was about our case. I'd highly recommend this well respected Atty, and that you would not be disappointed. Thank you, Atty Daddario, and Lots of Luck as you continue to serve and help win one case at a time.

Steve Eichenblatt is a class-leading lawyer with a knack for getting the job done efficiently and effectively. I'm a Michigander, and most of the personal injury attorneys you see on TVs and billboards are nothing but con artists looking to make a quick buck. But for a year + some odd months, Steve has been a confidant in making sure my wife and I were adequately taken care of since the day after our accident. Coming in by referral from another lawyer, there was already a groundwork of trust that was laid down before I even talked to Steve the first time. And after our first call, I knew my wife and I were in good hands. There's not enough I can say about the level of attentiveness we received through Steve and his trusted team at P & E. Thank you to everyone involved, and more importantly I want to say thank-you to your level of care as my wife and I worked through debilitating pain and suffering following what was supposed to be an amazing time in our lives.

I had injured both shoulders at my job and it was just after my surgery on my right shoulder when I had decided to hire Ben . I was concerned that the insurance company was going to try and dispute the liability of my injuries. From the first conference call I had with Ben he assured me that he would be able to help me. I suffer from extreme anxiety and it was just nice to know that I didn’t have to worry about the legal side to my claim. He was always very prompt in letting me know anything to do with my claim. He was able to get me an extra 100$ a week on my workers comp check that I would have never received if I didn’t hire Ben . Very professional in every aspect of his obligations as a lawyer. He also has an extremely helpful assistant so even if I was unable to talk to Ben I always knew that Heather would help me.

His reputation is well deserved and he was in contact with me every step of the way, quick to respond to questions and very direct with answers. I can say first hand that a client could have complete confidence in Mr Adler and his assistant Liz to fight for your rights, represent your case with integrity and compassion. By chance I spoke with a paralegal who knew Mr Adler and Liz from years ago, and couldn't say enough good things about them. She said I was truly in the best hands possible, and I can back that up. This is the attorney you want for your work comp case, bottom line you will be in the best hands in town. Thank you very much Marshall and Liz!

I received a notice that my brother needed to sign off and accept a compensation for a Worker's Comp injury sustained at his "High-Profile" workplace within a few days of the notice. The compensation offered seemed ridiculously low, to me and I did not know what to do. My brother has some learning disabilities and this was a broken hip injury that was really causing him some serious problems. He is a cart-pusher, and I believe any of you could understand what a broken hip injury might be like, in doing that job. My brother insisted on working even when it was too painful, and was afraid to call into work for fear he might lose his job. I contacted Joannie Grife, and she agreed to see us and said she would be glad to help in any way she could. She got right on our case. She was always there when we needed her. She showed my brother compassion and always talked to him and explained everything to him, which spared his dignity. She took the case and worked to the very limits of her ability to resolve our questions and make a fair settlement. We are very honored to have had her represent us and will always be grateful for the way she handled our case. She never waivered when my brother sustained a 2nd injury later, and continued to work with us. I highly recommend this law firm, and especially recommend Joanie Lynn Grife.

I had a complicated employment case and Juan had it resolved in record time as I could have been dragged out by up to 2 years. Juan and his firm had it settled within a couple of months. He is knowledgeable and even answered my emails after hours. If you need a law firm I can’t recommend a better one English Lloyd and Armenta!

I have been fighting for my disability since 2019. I have had the worse experience with Attorneys but I will say I am so grateful to Christopher and Lisa. They were amazing! There is not enough time for me to thank them and I have not gotten a determination yet, i should say and i still give him 5 stars because he was very kind and compassionate with what i was going through. He worked very hard for me and was very professional but didn't make me feel anxious about the hearing. Lisa was very helpful everytime we spoke. I recommend the office of Christopher Rabideau to everyone! Thank you for being there for me through all of the stress!

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.
