OUR Pledge to our clients
We believe quality representation requires open dialogue with those involved in defense of Workers’ Compensation Claims. The unique relationships involved in defense of these claims mandates cooperation between the employer, insurance carrier, and counsel. Accordingly, we seek open lines of communication with both in order to address issues involved in defending claims against our clients.
