See my attorney profile to learn a bit about my background and qualifications. Contact me to schedule a no-obligation consultation about any of the following areas:
- Workers' Compensation: You are entitled to compensation for medical expenses and replacement of lost wages after a workplace injury.
- Injured on the Job: It is not enough to file a claim and begin receiving compensation after an on-the-job accidental injury. It is important to ensure that an award has been legally recorded, for protection from future whims of the insurer.
- Loss of Use of Body Part: Workers' compensation provides for a specific number of weeks of benefits for each body part which is no longer functional because of a workplace accident. For example, the loss of an arm is assigned 200 weeks of compensation under he Virginia Workers' Compensation Act.
- Lump Sum Settlement of Claims: In place of monthly benefits, you and the insurer may agree on a lump sum settlement to be paid out all at once.
- Lifetime Benefit for You: Be aware of your right to life-long medical benefits for treatment stemming from your original workplace injury.
- Denied Compensation: I am in the practice of law to assist and advocate on behalf of injured workers. Watch out for the insurer who might try to deny or cut off your compensation because, according to them, you "refused to cooperate" with the rehabilitation counselor by searching for suitable jobs.
- Serious Personal Injuries: As an experienced injury lawyer, I have handled multiple personal injury cases that settled for more than $500,000.
- Auto and Truck Accidents: I am prepared to go to bat on your behalf after you have been injured in a truck or car accident in Virginia. All potential sources of compensation for you will be explored.
- Social Security Disability: You can expect your SSD claim to be denied the first time you apply. Success at an appeal is greatly enhanced with knowledgeable, experienced legal assistance.
