Workers’ Compensation Injuries

We handle ANY AND ALL workers’ compensation injuries including: repetitive stress (carpal tunnel syndrome); psychological stress; burns, amputations, dental, cardiac stress; pulmonary impairment; reactive airways disease; traumatic brain injuries; back and disc injuries; knees, shoulders and other joint injuries and occupational conditions; electrical shock/neurological injury (electrocution is death caused by electrical shock) and disabilities caused by scars. We have won and settled permanent total disability claims as well as employee death claims. We have been successful in cases involving: injury from chemicals and toxins; injuries occurring on production and assembly lines of large corporations; injuries caused by production machinery and injuries caused by electrical shocks. We will pursue cases against any liable third party that caused your work related injury and this will typically give you additional recovery and allow your employer or their insurer recover some of their costs paid to you for your injury.

Since August of 2005, when the new workers’ compensation laws became effective in Missouri, we have seen an ever increasing number of proper and legitimate claims be denied by insurers prior to the worker hiring our firm. These laws were pushed through by the large and effective insurance lobbies, passed by the Republican Legislature and signed by Governor Matt Blunt. Today we are fighting for medical treatment and comparability for our clients in claims that were never or rarely disputed in the past. If you are told that you’re injury is not compassable and you need to obtain your own medical treatment, CALL US IMMEDIATELY as your claim may be harmed without legal advice. We have handled and won multiple workers’ compensation cases in the appellate courts. BEWARE OF AGGRESSIVE UNSCRUPULOUS ADJUSTORS. IT IS ILLEGAL FOR AN EMPLOYER TO RETALIATE AGAINST ANYONE FOR EXERCISING THEIR WORKER’S COMPENSATION RIGHTS.

You may also have a civil case against a third person or corporation in addition to a worker’s compensation case for one injury. This is a complicated area of the law. Since we are not one of these “exclusive worker’s compensation” law firms, we will represent you in the WORKER’S COMPENSATION claim as well as the third party civil case.

Our lawyers handle cases throughout the States of Illinois and Missouri. We have tried and settled cases for many severely injured clients.

Some of the types of injuries we have handled are as follows: scalp lacerations; psychological injuries; brain damage; burns and scars; dental injuries; fractured jaws; hearing loss; vision loss; herniated and Bulging discs; sciatic problems; rotator cuff tears; cubital surgeries; carpal and tarsal tunnel; operated knees, shoulders, ankles; any fracture.

In addition, we regularly handle cases for employees who have strains, of all parts of their body. In the increasing hostile political environment we continue to fight for our clients to obtain their rights and benefits.

We have filed claims against employers and their insurers small and large, including Ford, GM, Chrysler, Anheuser Busch, Hussman Refrigeration, Tokyo Marine, City of St. Louis, County of St. Louis, State of Missouri, MSD, UE, AT&T, Harris Stowe State College, St. Louis University, Barnes Hospital, SSM, and a long list of others. We are willing to investigate all claims for any injured employees against any employer.

The type of injuries we have handles came from all causative factors including repetitive stress, electric, falls, automobile accident, crush injuries, chemical spills, burn spills, lifting injuries, needle stick injuries, gun shot wounds, etc
