Experienced Ohio Work Injury Attorneys

The primary focus of our practice is work injury and disability law. Our attorneys and staff are experienced. Most of us have spent our entire careers helping injured or disabled people get the benefits they need. We represent people, not companies. Because we only represent injured or disabled individuals, we can focus our practice on aggressively pursuing the compensation and medical coverage you need. Put that experience and knowledge to work for you.

One-on-One Personal Attention for Your Claim

The workers’ compensation and disability laws are complex, and those benefit systems are difficult to navigate alone. We pride ourselves on providing one-on-one service, and we custom-tailor our representation to your individual needs. We have a complete team of attorneys, paralegals, and support staff who all work together toward the success of your claim for benefits.

We accept cases on a contingency-fee basis, which means that we don’t get paid unless you get paid. That motivates us to keep in regular communication with you. We make every effort to reply to calls or emails within 24 hours. We keep you “in the loop” when important events are coming up in your claim so that you understand the process, are prepared, and can make the best decisions at every step of the claim process.

For us, a well-informed client is a happy client. It helps you spend less time worrying and more time focusing on your recovery. Let our experienced lawyers, paralegals, and support staff get to work helping you.

Because we are experienced, we have the knowledge to educate you about the benefits available to you and your family and how you can maximize them as your medical condition evolves. We treat you with compassion and respect. We answer your questions. We listen. Our commitment to you is daily service.

Not every client is the same. Not every injury is the same. That requires representation that is customized to you, your claim, and what you need.

A Team Approach to Workers’ Compensation and Disability Claims

Being injured or disabled can be hard on a person, not only physically, but also emotionally. It can cause financial hardship and strain family relationships as well as your relationship with your employer. Because the workers’ compensation and Social Security Disability systems can be so complex, we use a team approach to connect you with what you need.

We have developed a network of connections with some of the best doctors in the area to provide the medical, chiropractic, orthopedic, or psychological care you need. Having a good doctor is very important, but it’s also important to have a doctor who understands how to navigate workers’ compensation or Medicare coverage and obtain treatment approvals. Your doctor and your lawyer need to work together. We can connect you with doctors we work well with to help your claim and recovery move forward.

If your doctors determine that you can return to work, we can connect you with experienced vocational rehabilitation counselors who can guide you back to work and direct you to available retraining and education resources.

We can also connect you with help regarding insurance policies or long-term disability claims. Employers don’t always keep employee benefits available when you are unable to work. We can refer you to specialists who can help with retaliation or wrongful termination, FMLA issues, and health insurance continuation or coverage questions.

If you are off work long-term, we can connect you with help for Social Security Disability representation as well as long-term disability insurance policy matters. Workers’ compensation and disability claims are complex. Let us help connect you with what you need for medical treatment, compensation benefits, return-to-work services, and long-term disability benefits.
