am so pleased with his performance as an attorney I was associated with a different attorney for over 2 years with little to no progress on my case. Sid called me for the first time on a Monday and a settlement offer by that following friday, that was literally double the expectancy. His paralegal Janell Hudson kept in constant contact with me over the last two years to they were so kind,understanding,and hard working. I was in a very major injury and they helped me so much during such a hard time, I could not more strongly reccomend Sid,Janell, or brumback law group

All I can say is amazement! I was expecting a few brief responses to my inquiry on Avvo; I am pleasantly pleased that Mr. Ottem invited me to call and discuss the details of my situation with him. Avvo is an amazing tool that everyone with a legal problem should know about!

Mr. Ottem was able to explain complex legal matters in a way that I could understand. He worked hard on my auto accident case and listened to me intently and with patience. I had a lot of injuries that require ongoing medication and Mr. Ottem insured that I was compensated by the insurance company to cover those ongoing costs. I can't thank him enough.

Mr Helton his professionalism at its best. He absolutely knows his job. The highest of integrity, The greatest of knowledge, a man who serve this country, and most of all he treat you like a friend.
My case was simple ( or so he made it look ) I rReceived exactly what I was looking for and it was not a win in my favor. He was honest enough to tell me that I was not going to win. He told me that integrity is what carried his business to where it is. I can respect a man who can look you in the eye and tell you honestly what the received exactly what I was looking for and it was not a win in my favor. He was honest enough to tell me that I was not going to win. He told me that integrity is what carried his business to where it is.

I was getting nowhere with the insurance company after my car accident. One office visit with Lyndon Helton and I knew he was the one to help me! Professional, caring, and informative....Mr. Helton and his team always kept me informed and were able to reach the outcome I was asking for. Nothing "stuffy" about Lyndon Helton. Very down to earth, make you feel comfortable, get the job done kind of man! Thank you!

I was injured at work and went to see Mr. Abbarno at his office in Centralia. He and his staff were very knowledgeable and offered a free consultation to discuss my shoulder injury at work. He helped get my surgery approved, treatment, and got me back to work. It was a blessing to me and my family.

I hired Mr. Abbarno part way into my Child Custody/Child Support case. He came into a mess and had to fix and re-do things from a previous attorney I had. He did! He took the time and dug through it all and was amazing.. He took the time for me and took the time to understand in detail the truth in my case. I was a person and not a number or a paycheck and that was wonderful. I still am able to call and get his help if and when needed. He understands the ins and outs of the child custody/support world and gave his all for me and my kids. I am very thankful for him and would absolutely recommend him.

Peter represented us in a tough parenting plan with a lot of complicated issues. He was amazing and kept us informed throughout the entire difficult process. He went above and beyond in many areas. Peter would give many scenarios when we were uncertain on tough decisions, helping us see the big picture and possible challenges. In Meetings with him he always gave us 100 percent and never made us feel rushed and answered all of our questions. He was solid in court and in the end we were very happy with the results. Things have gone much smother in our life since.

Greg Pitts was very compassionate and understanding. From the initial interview through the entire process Greg kept me updated on what was happening and how the case was progressing. This was so important during this pandemic. I was very impressed by his staff and how understanding and compassionate they were. He was excellent at presenting my case and illustrating our side. This resulted in the best outcome that I could have hoped for. I felt that Gerg handled my case on a very personal level and not just another pay check. I highly recommend Greg Pitts to handle your case

Attorney Pitts was very helpful in my case. He talked to me with laments terms so I was able to really know what he was talking about.

John was the lawyer for our township for several years. I was personally very pleased with his consistent guidance. He dealt with many matters of varied degree, one large wastewater treatment plant. A 10 million dollar project. He was always very professional. He was my personal lawyer &/or advisor on several things for which I was very pleased. Sorry for the delay but I've been unreachable by e-mail.
Sincerely,

John did a great job presenting the facts and defending me when my neighbor was shot. This required outside the box thinking that John did well. As Defense lawyers go, I would put him in close to the top 10%. A good lawyer is not cheap, but will worth it in our corrupt Justice system.
John and I worked as a team, which I liked since it was my future at stake. John got to know me as a person and not just a name (or checking account number). He was open to my ideas on how to prove the accusers were lying. One must realize that lawyers are also actors and must impress the jury. John was good.
I would use him again if I needed an attorney.

Jason isn't just a great lawyer. He's also wise and honest. Dependable and warm. He knows the law - there's no doubt about that. But he's also wise, insightful and dependable. Read these words. My experience with him made me feel this is someone who understands the case, the human dynamics involved in the dispute and was dependable and available emotionally beyond the lawsuit itself. Just an amazing lawyer and an even better person.

This is my highest recommendation for the courteous and professional service I received from Jason Lundberg on my recent personal injury case concerning a slip and fall that occurred in Oakland, CA.
Jason Lundberg is a personal injury attorney in San Francisco, CA. I had initially hired another law firm to handle my case and after several years of no real action and what now appears to have been a series of professional blunders by the original law firm, my case file was essentially handed over to Jason Lundberg. This was probably the best thing to happen for me and my case as he immediately took the bull by the horns. I had a settlement check in my hands within 6 months of my meeting him. Job well done Jason!
He attended doctor’s appointments and all meetings himself. He was always keeping my best interest in mind and always kept my busy schedule as top consideration for important dates. If you need further recommendations from me leave your email address with Jason and I will answer any reasonable questions to the best of my ability.

After a life threatening injury accident, I very nearly tried to settle with the driver's insurance company on my own. What a mistake that would've been, but the lawyers I'd interviewed were more like car salesmen than legal advocates. Soon after I started making a tragic series of uninformed decisions, I had the good fortune to meet Jason. I must have seemed overly cautious, but he stuck with me, taking time to explain everything. His larger than life personality is more than perfectly genuine, it's perfectly suited to his profession.
At every turn, Jason clearly knew his stuff, from legal nooks and crannies to the maelstrom of hospital/doctor/fire dept billing depts, and insurance adjusters (one after another). Jason is a master communicator, forthright, practical, and shrewd.
To find a trusted lawyer is even more important than finding a trusted mechanic. The trauma, stress and uncertainty I'd been dealing with steadily faded and I was able to get back to my life! Even as we continued to wait on the other side, Jason would phone me with status updates and include me in his thought process.
Jason works incredibly hard. Even after we'd arrived at a settlement, meaning his fee was a known quantity, Jason continued to work on my behalf, pursuing billing inconsistencies that, once resolved, resulted in even more of the settlement coming to me. I have amply cause to give him five stars across the board. I can't recommend him enough.

Ms. McClintock was on point every step of the way. She made sure to keep me updated and was not afraid to take my case to trial. She made the entire process a lot easier to manage than I ever thought it could be. With her knowledge of the laws and procedures, combined with her down to earth approach, Ms. McClintock is the only attorney I will ever call when I need legal assistance.

Ms. McClintock provided very competent service to me. From the start of my case I felt like she genuinely was concerned and took a real interest in helping me. I never felt like I was just a client or number, but an individual that she wanted to help. She continually kept me informed and when court was going to happen she did her best to prepare me for what exactly would happen and the possible outcomes of the case. When my court date arrived there were no real surprises. She was completely prepared for anything the Prosecution presented. In the end she fought for me all the way and the final result was “Acquittal”. I couldn’t of been more happy with the outcome and service. If you need a competent and reliable lawyer Ms. McClintock is one of the best and one I would use again if necessary for myself or family. Fees were very fair and reasonable. So I will definitely recommend her to anyone. I can’t thank her enough for the service she provided.

We found ourselves in a somewhat embarassing position last year when our 19 year daughter was arrested for shoplifting. We were referred to Mr. Kim through a friend and contacted him for his help. Since she had never been arrested before he was able to work with the prosecutor and allow her to attend anti-theft classes which enabled her to have this minor charge expunged from her record. Without this expungement, she would not have been able to get the job she had been wanting for some time. Mr. Kim helped to ease our fears through this whole process and without his help, she might have been held back in life. Even though this was a minor charge, it was a big deal to our family and we can't thank Mr. Kim enough.

Mr Kim and Jo Ann have been so helpful in every aspect of my case. I had an accident someone t-boned me and I had terrible neck and low back pain. They took over my medical bills and we finally got things paid. The insurance company was awful and they helped me by talking to the adjuster so
He would see reason. I recommend this law firm to anyone having problems with an insurance company after a wreck!

When my wife and I had our wills done, Mr. Kim handled everything. Any questions I had were answered in a way I could fully understand.
Years prior, when I went into business with a friend, Mr. Kim took care of all the things required to keep us legal and on course. When I left the business, he provided counsel on me making a clean break from my short lived business venture.
I think of Ron as being a straight forward and honest man.

I hired Gabriel to help with a Workmen's Comp. case. He was very professional, easy to get a hold of, and returned phone calls quickly. He had a lot of knowledge in the process, and what I should or should not do with my current employer. He explained things in ways I could understand, and I always felt like I was in charge of my case. I would definitely use him again if I needed to in the future. I would recommend him to all my friends and family without a doubt.

I hired Stacy for a complicated custody situation. She did not back down and represented me as a professional.

The impact that a great lawyer can have on one’s life is unmeasurable. This journey wasn’t easy and truly tested my patience and at some moments faith, but I trusted Stacy’s word and now I can finally stop the worries and have my son with full custody.
I have had the opportunity to work with Stacy on several occasions over the last three years and she is hands down the one and only lawyer I trust to represent me.
Stacy has guided and mentored me through difficult situations that I was faced with to ensure I did what was always in the best interest of my son. She has told me the truth at times when I did not want to hear it, but knowingly it was the right advice to take. She encouraged me to teach myself how to separate my emotions and stay professional at all times.
As I said this has been a journey, but I chose the right path to take and that was to hire Stacy.

After working with another attorney for months, I was getting discouraged so I met with Stacy to discuss my uphill chances, as a dad and a defendant, to get primary custody of my infant daughter. Stacy immediately demonstrated her superior legal expertise.
Stacy demonstrated her outstanding ability to formulate a winning legal strategy by focusing on the most important aspects of my case - what a breath of fresh air. She quickly developed an overview and demonstrated her excellent analytical skills by pulling the relevant pieces from the large volume of written material in a matter of days. Stacy read everything! She did not cut corners.
Stacy showed her superb organizational skills by summarizing the evidence in a systematic spreadsheet, a mere glance showed in a clear fashion how the evidence fit together in a convincing manner. My case is considered difficult and complex, the seasoned judge wrote that he had not encountered in one case so many difficult aspects.
Stacy was very prompt in her communication, she works in real-time, she never left me hanging. Stacy demanded transparency and she always performed due diligence, if I could not provide evidence to confirm a claim it was not going to be used. Period. This speaks volumes about Stacy’s integrity.
I am very familiar with Stacy’s tremendous work ethic and her outstanding ability to present the essence of disparate pieces of information in a concise, persuasive manner. Stacy’s motions were clear, compelling and always filed in a timely manner. Before trial, Stacy prepared me for what to expect on the witness stand and how to conduct myself during the cross-examination by the opposing counsel. This speaks volumes for Stacy’s passion for her work.
It was in the courtroom that I saw the same professional side of Stacy, her cross-examination of witnesses was professional and devastatingly effective and without any of the horse and pony show elements used by the opposing counsel. In the weeks leading up to trial we were exchanging dozens of email a day to go over the hundreds of pages of last minute records that we received from the opposing side. To say that Stacy thoroughly prepared my case for trial is not an understatement.
Stacy made her capable and efficient staff available to me for small and big things related to the case.
I admire how personable Stacy is, her calm demeanor is very reassuring. I trust her. My confidence in her legal competence is absolute.

Malcolm handled my personal injury case from an automobile accident several years ago (2010). He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and well versed in the law regarding the particulars of my case.

First, I spoke with Attorney Clark A. Mitchell Sr. concerning my case. He was extremely knowledgeable but could not take my case because it was not his specialty. He referred me to Attorney Clark A. Mitchell Jr. He could not take my case as well for the same reason. Both attorneys were professional and caring when I spoke with him. Not only did he actively listen to my case, but they also gave me suggestions and advice in general. When they explained it was not their area of law and could not represent me, they referred me to other lawyers. They were extremely patient.

Since I didn't currently have an attorney, I initially sought out Clark Mitchell based on his reputation as one of my area's preeminent lawyers. I was serving as the executor of both my aunt's and mother's estates. With absolutely no experience or real knowledge of the process or my role in it, I was very worried about retaining an attorney that would be efficient, willing to guide me, and easy to work with. I could not have been more pleased with Mr. Mitchell and his staff.
From the outset, Attorney Mitchell and his staff guided me through this foreign process, allowing and encouraging me to ask what I'm sure were trivial and inconsequential questions. They were patient knowledgeable, efficient, and affordable. Mr. Mitchell took what could have been an overwhelming and unpleasant experience and made it both painless and seamless. I have since used Attorney Mitchell for all my other legal matters with similar results.
I highly recommend Clark Mitchell and Associates for anyone looking for an experienced lawyer with a caring touch.

David started representing me back in 2008. He was referred by a co-worker. My former employer was going after me for an alleged breach of contract. They hired different law firms to try to collect monies from me; the last of which actually sued me in court. David was there every step of the way, defending and supporting me. His dedication and sharp legal acumen resulted in the case being dismissed with prejudice in my favor. I am very relieved and grateful that this ordeal is finally over. David slew my personal Goliath! Thanks also to Mark Wisel (he was kind and wonderful) for helping David make this happen. I highly recommend David without batting an eyelash; he's your ace in the hole.

Jeanne has been our attorney for the last 10+ years. She helped us receive compensation when our 3 yr. son was attacked by a dog, leaving his lip almost ripped off. ( Our 1st Attorney was unable to achieve this). Jeanne also helped us win a lawsuit against our builder when he refused to repair our septic system which failed while we were in our 1 year warranty. She has always made time to answer any questions we may have, and give us sound advice on how to proceed. We would refer her to anyone looking for a trustworthy Attorney.

Recently I engaged Ms. Washburn to represent me in an automobile injury accident in which I was involved. I work in the legal profession with many attorneys, and know how unresponsive and uninterested they can be. Ms. Washburn gave my case the attention it needed, kept me informed, responded quickly to my questions and concerns, and resolved the case promptly to my satisfaction. She was very thorough and listened and learned everything about my case, and then she provided me with the benefit of her legal knowledge and expertise. She knows what she's doing and she gets her point across to the other side, and they understand that she means business. She did an outstanding job for me and I would highly recommend her. In fact, I have already recommended a friend to her!

This guy is awesome!! Unfortunately, I needed his services for my underage daughter's DUI. Found him to be very easy to deal with. Explains things very clearly in layman’s terms, knows the law and is very responsive. Kept us informed (even after he was paid). Hopefully I don't need his service again but if I found myself or my family in another situation where I needed a "hired gun" to go to bat I wouldn't hesitate to call Mr. Maffett.

Attorney Lourie represented my daughter and me in two separate car accident cases. From the moment we stepped into his office until he won the cases for us, the entire time he handled our case to perfection. He kept us informed and fought hard for our best interests.
We are convinced he is the best attorney in town. Attorney Lourie is an awesome lawyer. He is extremely personable and extremely professional.

I retained Attorney Neal Lourie for my Workers Compensation Case, which was a rather difficult one.
Attorney Lourie is by far THE most Honest, Loyal, Tenacious, Caring and Honorable person one could wish to have handle legal issues. His 'can do' approach is only second to his excellent, courteous manner. He only gives the facts and fights hard to see that Justice is done. He has a caring kind manner that puts one at ease as soon as one meets him. There are no hidden agendas, and no false claims, he deals with the facts and is extremely knowledgeable in his field of practicing law.
The outcome of my Workers Compensation case was very satisfactory, I was amazed at the results.
If the need arises when you may need an Attorney, then Attorney Neal Lourie and his Law Firm are a sure bet.

Pete represented me years ago in a car wreck case. He took the time to get to know me and my family and understood the financial and personal impact that my injuries had on me and my family. In the end, the other driver’s insurance company settled for the maximum limit under the other driver’s policy. Pete is a lawyer that truly cares about his clients. He is experienced in numerous areas of the law, from criminal defense, accident cases, and workers compensation. Without hesitation I have referred family, friends, and others to Pete for representation and will continue to do so.

My lawyer was quick and to the point when it came to communication I felt like he had my back and he treated me like a human being not a number. I think the most important thing was he listened to me when I talked and he always had information for me whenever I needed it. Communication and listening that’s what is important and he got it. I’d hire this guy again in a minute. He is a beast when it comes to protecting his client

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:
-
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. -
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. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including the potential challenges and outcomes. -
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. -
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. -
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.
