We’ve developed a process to make your path to a settlement as smooth, easy, and quick as possible:
Know this: you don’t have to prove your employer was at fault in causing your injury. It’s critical for us to understand how you got hurt, since:
Insurance companies deny cases for any reason they can dream up. Additionally, we typically request hearings to get your benefits ordered in cases involving:
The doctor is one of the most vital witnesses in your case. Doctors’ records help prove the nature and extent of your injuries, including the treatment required now and in the future.
It’s the right thing for us to do since you’re our client! We keep up with you so we can be aware of how your treatments are going and how you’re doing. It can also establish major points on your treatment timeline, especially when you’re about to be released. Knowing that helps us get ready for settlement ahead of time, so we can expedite the process to help you get a settlement faster.
Keeping up with you also helps us stay ahead of the insurance company and opposing counsel, who, unlike you, have the luxury of requesting a hearing with a quick deadline. The fast deadline makes it extremely hard to prepare for the hearing properly. It’s the insurance company’s dream. They can use it to strong-arm inexperienced, unprepared employees into a cheap, unfair settlement.

For especially serious cases, we’ll explore the need for a vocational evaluation.
We give you a written settlement evaluation in clear, honest terms.

During negotiations, we keep you updated with all offers as we move our strategy forward. We always want your input in this final step that’s hopefully the culmination of our efforts. Often, it ends with a settlement.
If it doesn’t, we request a hearing to get your case decided by a Workers’ Compensation Commissioner. In serious cases, we might agree to mediation. In mediation, an experienced workers’ comp lawyer who’s not involved with the case works with both parties to get them to reach a settlement if they can. It’s a totally voluntary process, so if we don’t settle, we head to the hearing.
