Workers’ Compensation Defense and Employment Disputes
With years of experience in the employment litigation arena, the firm represents a number of employers in the state in defense of workers’ compensation claims, as well as representing both companies and employees in employment-related disputes such as discrimination claims, wrongful termination claims, employment contract and pay disputes.
In the workers’ compensation arena, the firm has the experience to advise employers in navigating claims made by employees for workplace injuries, and the skills to reach the best possible resolution, whether amicable or in the courtrooms of the Louisiana Workforce Commission. With respect to other employment-related matters, the firm focuses on investigating the events and facts underlying an employment dispute, and then develops an efficient strategy in light of the legal principles applicable to the facts.
The firm will thoroughly vet and evaluate each claim against our clients to determine possible exposure and the value of the claim. In cases where the claim raises suspicion as to its authenticity, we will investigate deeper to understand all circumstances surrounding the alleged accident and the injury the claimant says that it caused, as well as investigating and reviewing the worker’s past medical history, and ultimately determine the validity of the claim.
