About

We have specialized in helping injured workers and their families since 1980. We have a reputation for excellence recognized by our peers. We have collected over $500 million for our clients through hard work and dedication to our clients unique circumstances. We never charge a fee unless we achieve a victory or settlement. Michigan's workers compensation system is seriously flawed. It strongly favors employers and insurance companies over the rights of workers. The Michigan legislature, with the support of a Republican governor and administration, drastically cut the benefits available in 2011 to the point where Michigan is ranked as one of the worst states in the USA for people injured at work. The benefit levels are among the lowest in the country. The administration of the system by the Worker's Disability Compensation Agency is a joke, and we have a very large backlog of cases to be decided that strains a system that is struggling to pay its employees and update its methods. It is a system that is content to live in the Dark Ages, claiming budget constraints, even when Michigan has a budget surpass. Very few cases go to trial because the wait is too long, the cost of preparing a case is too high, and the system is biased in favor of insurance companies and employers. Settlement is the only option for most of the people caughtt up in this mess. We are dedicated to meticulously preparing our cases for trial. We are not afraid to spend what is needed to win a case or achieve a just settlement. Our dedicated team works hard every day to make sure our clients rights are protected. They are treated with dignity and respect. An attorney is always available to answer questions and concerns at every step in the process. We are proud to boast that our clients have received some of the largest settlements in Michigan and our average settlement exceeds the state average by 200%. Our advise is always free and if we cannot help you typically no one can. Ask around!
