Aggressive Defense Against Workers' Compensation and Longshore Claims
Employees injured in the service of an employer are generally entitled to receive workers' compensation benefits. But how much benefit is necessary? What legal obligations must the employer and insurer fulfill to ensure the injured employee receives sufficient care? Our attorneys handle a wide variety of issues, including:
- Disability claims, including total or partial permanent disability ratings
- Longshore defense
- Extra-contractual / bad faith defense
- Jones Act Claims
- Medicare set-aside issues
