Work Place Injuries & Workers Compensation
Work Place Injuries Happen All of the Time.

If you have been injured in a work place accident, or have developed a medical condition
resulting from your work tasks or environment, you may be eligible to receive benefits through Georgias workers' compensation insurance. The personal injury law firm of Howell and Johnson, in Atlanta and Athens, Georgia, handles every component of an initial workers' compensation claim and can help you avoid the frustration of having your benefits denied.

We provide a free consultation to discuss your work place injury and will not charge attorney's fees unless you receive money benefits. If you are not sure whether your job injury qualifies for workers' compensation or short term or permanent disability benefits, it will cost you nothing to talk with one of our experienced personal injury lawyers.

Not all employers in Georgia subscribe to a workers' compensation insurance plan. Business that have chosen to "self-insure" and do not pay compensation are required to prove that 100% of the liability for an injury lies in the hands of the injured worker or that the injury was caused by the negligence of a third party. Even if you may have been partially responsible for your own accident and injury at work, the insurance defense attorneys will not be allowed to enter your own negligence into evidence. A jury would only be required to consider any amount of liability on the part of your employer. This opens up your work place injury case to possible significant compensatory and punitive damages that workers' compensation insurance benefits might not cover.

Whatever the damage or injury, we understand that no amount of money can make things right. At the same time, the economic and quality of life costs associated with most work place injuries are staggering. We routinely partner with some of the nations leading medical professionals, accountants, life care planners, economists and other experts to calculate the true costs and seek the full financial compensation you will need to move forward in life.
