Workers' compensation lawyers should be accessible and affordable. I work on a contingency system where you don't pay me fees unless we win. And, I will give you a free initial consultation so you can explain your case to me, and I can answer your questions about the law. The costs of your case, however, will ultimately be the injured worker's responsibility under state law.
Easy to Reach
Other lawyers hide behind their paralegals, secretaries, assistants, and computers, saying they are too busy to take your call personally. I meet with you personally, take your calls and return them quickly, and follow through on your needs when they arise. Success in the law is the result of quick response and good timing. You deserve a lawyer who knows you, knows the system, and uses his knowledge to achieve good results for you.
Experienced
Other lawyers say they have three decades or more of practice in the law - but are they talking about themselves, or are they talking about someone who used to work with them? I have been working for people in the workers' compensation system for 90% of my 24 years as an attorney. I know that NO ONE wants to have an injury, and no one deserves to be treated without respect. I have worked on every side of the workers' compensation system and know how insurance companies think, what their lawyers might do to take advantage of you, and how to stop it.
Convenient
In order to meet you more conveniently, I maintain offices in both Rifle and Glenwood Springs. I work for clients from Leadville to Grand Junction, and from Craig to Hotchkiss, and even Denver and beyond. I will set up appointments where you and I can meet close to your home and in a relaxed and stress-free environment.
Medical Benefits
Some insurance companies want you to see a doctor who isn't really independent. Some insurance companies refuse to pay for medical care which you need. Some insurance companies even limit the number of times your doctors can treat you. These insurance companies are not always acting ethically or within the bounds of the law. I have worked with, for, and against the insurance industry for 24 years, pointing out where they wrong, and getting workers the medical care they deserve, not just what the claims adjuster wants to pay for. If you are having trouble with your claims representative or your doctor's office, it is probably time to call a good lawyer.
An Intelligent Approach to the Law
Successful lawyering is more than just talk. It involves careful research, knowledge of the medical facts in your case, and careful attention to how to get you the best medical care that science has to offer you. I am in frequent contact with helpful doctors, and registered nurses to help work through the important medical issues in your case. Your case is important, every fact can be important, and trusting your case to lawyers who don't pay attention to the medical facts in your case could lead to an unexpected (and unwanted) result.
Fair
I practive workers' compensation law because I hate to see people treated unfairly. In 24 years of providing legal services to people in the workers' compensation system, I have seen just about every insurance trick in the book. I work hard to get my clients over the hurdles that insurance companies throw in front of you; to get you the best medical care, the best results, and to get back to work as soon as possible.
I Understand
Unfortunately, accidents do happen. All you want to do is get well, get paid, and get back to work. All too often the insurance company wants to treat the worker as if they have done somethng wrong. A good lawyer works for you to make sure that you get everythingyou deserve when an unexpected accident derails you. And that you get it fast, without unnecessary delays.
