Workers’ Compensation Law

We minimize the PAIN

Innovative, thoughtful, and consistent handling of workers’ compensation claims is critical to the overall labor-management relationship. With an in-depth knowledge of the Workers’ Disability Compensation Act, and pertinent case law, not to mention the ADA, FMLA, and other regulations, our workers’ compensation law attorneys join our clients in ensuring that their rights as an employer in Michigan are preserved.

We’re ready at all stages of a claim to assist employers and human resource professionals in managing the cost of worker’s compensation to the employer. When litigation is necessary, we pursue disputed matters intelligently and aggressively. And after decades of defending workers’ compensation claims, our wealth of medical knowledge makes it easy to collaborate with the doctors we carefully chose as medical experts.

Over the years, we have attained exceptional insight into the magistrates, attorneys, and expert witnesses with whom we work. We successfully implement case strategies, develop effective medical and other expert proofs and lay testimony, and achieve outcomes that often exceed our clients’ expectations.
