We are available to discuss the particular needs of prospective clients, and welcome the opportunity to provide the assistance necessary for the successful handling of workers’ compensation and other insurance defense matters.

Our experience in workers’ compensation ranges from handling pre-litigation matters to defending workers’ compensation claims in litigation to successfully arguing cases before the Kentucky Supreme Court. We handle all types of workers’ compensation matters in Kentucky, Indiana, and West Virginia, including defense of injury, hearing loss and occupational disease claims and prosecution of medical disputes. We practice before the Kentucky Department of Workers’ Claims, the Indiana Workers’ Compensation Board and the West Virginia Offices of the Insurance Commissioner. We defend federal black lung claims before the U.S. Department of Labor. We handle appellate work before the Workers’ Compensation Board, Kentucky Court of Appeals, and Kentucky Supreme Court. We also regularly handle workers’ compensation subrogation cases in state and federal courts in Kentucky and Indiana. Finally, we represent employers, insurance carriers, and third-party administrators before the Department of Workers’ Claims in non-litigation matters.

The attorneys in our firm regularly provide education and consulting services to our clients, peers, and other practitioners, including presentations on such topics as loss prevention, claims handling and defense, and updates on statutory and case law.
