Carmel, Indiana, Work Injury Law Firm

Attorneys

Publications such as the Indianapolis Monthly and Law and Politics have recognized our efforts and successes by naming members of our firm Indiana Super Lawyers in 2004, 2005, 2007, and 2008. One of our attorneys was named the 2006 Indiana Trial Lawyer of the Year by the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association; another attorney was named the 2004 Young Lawyer of the Year by the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association. Our attorneys have also been admitted into the prestigious American Sagamore Inn of Court. Our firm’s attorneys regularly engage in pro bono activities, assume leadership roles in legal organizations, and lecture and write on legal topics including workers’ compensation.

Practice

Our workers’ compensation practice is based on our vast experience handling all types of workers’ comp claims and appeals. Our clients include employees in every industry and job type. We also accept cases on a referral and co-counsel basis from other attorneys who are seeking experienced workers’ comp lawyers for their clients; we pay referral fees as allowed by the Indiana Rules of Professional Conduct.

Our lawyers pursue all aspects of a client’s claim, from making sure he or she receives full disability benefits to including calculations for the cost of ongoing medications. Our extensive experience in handling thousands of work comp claims provides a firm foundation on which to argue for full compensation for injured workers.

Office Location

We are conveniently located on North Meridian Street in Carmel, Indiana. From here, we represent injured workers throughout the state, handling complex claims and third party injury cases in which workers were injured at work because of the negligence of someone who was not his or her employer.

Fees

Attorney fees are set by law in workers’ compensation cases. The cost of our legal services is 20% of all benefits up to $50,000 and 15% of any benefits over $50,000. There is also a statutory $200 minimum fee for handling a workers’ comp case.

However, if the worker does not receive any work comp benefits, we charge no fee. With this “no fee if no recovery” guarantee, injured workers have very little to lose and much to gain by having an attorney during the workers’ compensation claim process.

Act now to get someone on your side

Do not wait until you receive a lowball settlement offer to hire a lawyer, as some people do. The cost is no different if you work with an attorney from the beginning of your case. Having a knowledgeable lawyer all throughout the process allows you to avoid mistakes that may delay or reduce your benefits. Even if your claim is accepted from the start, it is wise to have an attorney involved all along the way in any serious work injury case. The work comp insurance company knows this—that’s why they have claims adjusters, nurse case managers and attorneys involved from the start on all serious injury cases.
