I was stopped for a DUI in that state of Missouri in the summer of 2018. I live in Kansas so I was not aware of the process of living in another state while in trouble in another. I was placed under arrest and went to jail. After I was released I found attorney Paul Burmaster through a ton of research on finding the best lawyer for my case. After meeting with him I knew this was the man to represent me and my case. Im glad I did. I had 2 court hearings to overcome and try and win my case. The first was the circuit court for keeping my drivers license. Long story short...We won by a judges ruling and I was able to keep my license and not go on any record or take a insurance hit. The 2nd court hearing I had to attend was for the criminal side of it with the KCMO Municipal Court. Prior to this Paul had came up with the best plan to represent and fight my case before going into the court room. I was always aware and kept in contact at all times of these hearings so I was fully aware of what was going on at all times. The day of the court hearing with the judge, prosecutor, and two police officers I knew what was going on during my trial keeping me in more of a calm state of mind knowing I had a good fighting chance to win. This helped me keep focused and my stress low at a time like this. During this trial I observed Paul being very organized and two steps ahead of everyone in the court room. With his knowledge and aggressive skill set we were able to win my case and was dismissed. I was very pleased with the outcome and would recommend this attorney to anyone. He will stand up for you and your rights to deliver the best outcome of any case that is brought to him. Thanks Again.

I hired Paul to help me with a DUI charge that I faced in Kansas. From the beginning, I knew I was in good hands. He was thorough, persistent with communication, and able to defend me to the greatest degree when the time came to do so. We won my DUI case, and I could not be happier with the results, as well as the effort that Paul put forth in making it happen. If you ever need someone who knows the law and is willing to fight to the end to win, you should absolutely consider hiring Paul Burmaster as your attorney.

I was stopped for a DUI and Paul convinced me to go all the way through trial. After the prosecution wasn't able to get my case ready for speedy trial, he managed to get the case dismissed.

George was really amazing and was able to get my DUI conviction reduced to simple traffic violation. It’s true that Unethical DUI lawyers with low fees will take your money and then ask you to plead guilty without doing any sort of work whatsoever. But Mr. Creal took over my case, did his homework and guided me through the entire process. I was very impressed with his service and I would highly recommend Mr. Creal to anyone facing a DUI conviction to get the best possible outcome. Thanks George for working with me!

Last year, we found ourselves in a very unfortunate dispute over language in a lease we signed with a property manager and tenants. The conflict brought me to my knees...it was one of the hardest things I have ever experienced (and I have known real pain). And we could not find an attorney to help us. When we called Mark Sullivan and explained the situation he agreed to help us. Over the next few months he provided exceptional counsel, and we ultimately prevailed. He was always available to us, and knew exactly when to push the other side, and when to give them time. Mark's professionalism, knowledge, wisdom and expertise helped us tremendously, and I am forever grateful.

We hired Mark to help us manage a property damage case. We were a large group of defendants that were out of state and had never dealt with a situation like this; we hired Mark given his track record and expertise. Mark was nothing shy of phenomenal throughout the entire process. He did an incredible job coaching us along the way and giving us sound advice to navigate the legal proceedings in Wyoming. Mark is very intelligent and professional and his fees were very reasonable. Ultimately, Mark helped us get this case settled which was optimal outcome for all parties. I would absolutely recommend Mark to potential clients because of his ability to ease a very stressful process.

After engaging another law firm following my car accident, I was deeply disappointed with the treatment I received throughout the entire case and the meager reimbursement. However, my experience with Bart Bernard Injury Lawyers was the complete opposite. Every staff member treated me with respect, starting with Bart himself, and this level of respect continued until I received my check, which exceeded my expectations by a significant margin. Your staff is simply the best. I will enthusiastically recommend your company to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney for a car accident.

Ron is a very respectful and a straight shooter attorney. He's fair with pricing and does not waste your time. I had two lawyers prior before hiring Ron. I wish I would've met him first. He does not let anything slide and will argue the law as is. No games. No drama. The best I can say about Ron is that he actually valued my time and life. From day one meeting him, it was all business and straight to work. I would highly recommend him for any area of law he practices. Great person and Great to work with.

If you are a WC claimant in the need of a well established, very intelligent, Pennsylvania worker’s compensation specialist attorney, then look no further. Attorney Leo Jackson, Jackson Law Stroudsburg, Pa, is the lawyer you are looking for. Leo knows the laws and will professionally fight for your rights with no hesitation. Leo is very informative and quick to respond to you, the client. He is quick on his feet in the courtroom. Attorney Leo Jackson personally represented me and I give him 5 stars all around. I highly recommend this man. There’s no need to go to the big city to find a certified work. comp. attorney, especially during unprecedented times/your unfortunate situation, when you have Jackson Law right here in northeast Pa. Very competent attorney and Law firm. Super lawyer 2020 in my opinion. God bless and good luck to anyone reading this review. Thank you Leo, KM

Banks Law was recommended to us by another law firm because we needed representation in worker compensation law. We thank our lucky stars. We cannot imagine a more knowledgeable, better informed, harder working or more respectful organization. From our initial meeting with Mr. Banks when he got to understand out case and laid out for us what we could expect, through working with many members of his staff (and we have worked with several), we have been continually surprised at the amount of support offered by every member of the team whether it is during working hours or not. Searching for care providers, offering advice, or telling us what we can do on our own without needing an attorney's help were all done with quick response time, concern and helpfulness. The amount of respect with which each and every member of the Banks Law team treats its clients is a lost art, and they really look out for the well-being of their clients. I would not have had a clue how I was being cheated by my workers comp provider and would have lost my benefits completely if not for Banks Law. The quality and amount of work they do, and the results they get are certainly worth their fee. I give them the highest of recommendations.

That changed quickly we decided to consult with an attorney but ultimately ended up hiring Joseph Bedoy. I feel that was our best decision , because we had no clue how long of a process this would be. Our experience was great he answered all of our questions and explained them in terms we would understand. communication was key when we set out to find an attorney and Mr. Bedoy exceeded that. He was quick to respond to emails and or phone calls sending copies of my husband medical records and making sure work comp was doing their part. Overall we had a great experience!

I am pleased with the results of my case and the settlement that I was awarded. I would highly recommend Mr. Bruno and Boyk law firm.

We in the past used Lee Thompson for advice and to prepare our wills. We found him advising us honestly and professionally. Also recently consulted him on a matter and he was very helpful. We would recommend Lee for legal matters hands down.

I was having an issue with a 34 yr old paternity case and Mr. Thompson explained very thorough the pluses and minuses of moving further with this case, his advice (for free mind you) really opened up my eyes on the true nature of this situation. Mr. Thompson really knows and showed me he has much knowledge of Family Law and if another situation ever arises involving the need for attorney I would hire Mr. Thompson in a minute.

Joe is not only a great lawyer, but he’s also very empathetic and straight forward with every step of the process every time I left his office or got done with emails or phone calls with him I wasn’t left with questions because of how much information he really does give you to make sure you are fully confident in everything going forward and understanding of the process! Joe is an outstanding attorney he made the court process as smooth as butter making sure I had all of the information a few weeks beforehand and met me outside of the court room because he knew I was anxious about all of it! I will always recommend joe to every family member or friend who is going through what I just did or anything else he could help with because he seriously made such a stressful situation not as stressful as it would have been! Thank you Joe for everything!!!

I went to d'Oliveira & Associates after my injury in an auto accident. Robin was so helpful to me. She answered every question and concern that I had. Her advice made what could have been a very stressful time much easier for me. If need be, I would hire Robin again in the future and I’d recommend her if you’ve been in accident and need solid law advice. Thank you!

I was injured on the job and pushed into Workmen's Comp. At the beginning I believed the system was on my side. After 9 months and denials I pursued legal action. I was given Jane Wender as a referral from a neighbor. Jane was wonderful. She recognized the disservice I was receiving and helped me to get the help I needed to get my life back. Her experience and knowledge were evident and appreciated. I would highly recommend her to any family memeber. That says a lot in itself. Thank you!

If you need representation for any Longshore case please contact Andrea Herman! She works for your treatment and works hard to get you a fair settlement. It’s hard to find an attorney that knows the longshore industry but Andrea is extremely knowledgeable and is willing to let you know what your rights are. Any hiccups we experienced in treatment she was there to make sure the treatment was done timely. I admired her work ethic the most and her caring nature!

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.
