Our Workers’ Compensation practice group has
extensive experience advising and representing insured and self-insured employers
in the Lehigh Valley and throughout eastern Pennsylvania. In fact, one of
our shareholders frequently serves as a member of the faculty at statewide seminars
on workers’ compensation and medicine for lawyers and is a co-author of
a manual widely regarded as the “bible” for workers’ compensation
practitioners and administrators.
Clients seek assistance from us with matters such as:
- Death claims
- Medical-only claims
- Hearing loss and other specific loss claims
- Repetitive trauma injuries
- Occupational diseases
- General orthopedic injuries
- Developing strategies for limiting liability under the Workers’ Compensation Act
- Return-to-work issues
- Evaluating matters for settlement
- Negotiating resolutions of claims
- Education in the prevention, reporting, investigation, and handling of claims.
In addition to appearing before Workers’ Compensation Judges, our attorneys
regularly represent clients before the Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board
and the appellate courts of Pennsylvania.
