Workplace Injury

Workers Compensation • Social Security Disability

When a personal injury occurs at the workplace, your health, your mental and emotional state, even your livelihood may be affected.  Perhaps permanently!
 
Your injury may have been due to an accident at the workplace, or the negligence of someone else.  Whether the injury is from an auto accident, a fall, or the use of a defective product, bringing you back to health and wellness may be an expensive proposition, not to mention the cost of lost wages.
 
The plain truth is: from medical bills to the cost of rehabilitation and lost days at work, everyone’s first concern seems to be minimizing their own expenses.
 
Your Personal Injury Lawyer’s first concern must be you!
 
Contact Debra L. Henry for an experienced workplace injury lawyer dedicated to working with you on an individual basis. We take your welfare to heart, so that we can provide the best legal services and advice, not only for a personal injury settlement that meets your needs today, but for your future as well.  Your free consultation is just an email or a phone call away.

Workers Compensation

If you are seeking workers compensation for lost wages and medical bills due to an on-the-job injury, you may not realize how much care needs to be taken in accepting settlements or agreeing to workers compensation offers.
 
A poorly constructed agreement can block you from the future availability of disability pensions, benefits, and health insurance coverage.
 
With more than 13 years working as a compensation department counsel for the district office of an international labor union, Debra L. Henry has a remarkable depth of experience representing injured workers, both union and non-union.
 
Depending on your individual circumstances, a lump sum payment may be a beneficial way to deal with your workers compensation claim.  A lump sum personal injury settlement puts an end to any fears that the insurance company will cease payments sometime in the future.  However, acceptance of a lump sum personal injury settlement removes you from the workers comp system permanently. 
 
Let attorney Debra L. Henry stand by you, helping to craft the settlement best suited to your needs both now and in the future.
