Serious Injuries Require Serious Investigation

Industrial accidents, construction-related accidents, and explosions cause traumatic injuries to workers. Serious burns, head and brain trauma, spinal cord injuries, loss of limbs-the suffering and lifelong consequences of these injuries is great. We regularly work with medical experts to calculate the full costs of your injury, including the expense of lifetime healthcare assistance.

Protecting the Rights of Undocumented Workers, Temporary Workers and Migrant Workers

Undocumented workers, temporary workers and migrant workers form a large part of the workforce in many dangerous jobs where OSHA safety violations occur, and are often injured in workplace accidents. If you are an undocumented or migrant worker, you ARE eligible to recover money for your injuries. Our lawyers have taught seminars and written papers on the rights of undocumented workers. We can help you recover lost wages, medical expenses, and get money for your pain and suffering.
