Murfreesboro Workplace Injury Lawyers
Experienced Advocacy in Tennessee Workers' Compensation Claims
If you were injured in the scope of your job — an accident or an ailment that develops over time — you may be covered by workers' compensation. No matter how the injury occurred (even by your own negligence), you are entitled to employer-paid benefits for lost wages, medical bills and any permanent disability.

Injured on the Job? You Deserve FULL Benefits.
Contact us as soon as you are injured. It is important to document your medical treatment properly to maximize your benefits. We have handled all types of "workman's comp" claims:
- Back injuries from lifting or straining
- Shoulder and knee injuries
- Slip and falls or falls from heights
- Machinery or heavy equipment accidents
- Injuries to arms, legs, hands and feet
- Lacerations, burns and electrical shock
- Repetitive strain/cumulative injury (e.g., carpal tunnel)
- Toxic exposures and other occupational injury
If your claim was rejected, we can represent you before the Benefit Review Conference (BRC), an administrative proceeding to determine if you are disabled from work, and to what degree. Our experienced attorneys work to ensure that you obtain all entitled benefits, including temporary total disability, permanent partial disability, permanent total disability, or scarring/disfigurement.
If your employer-chosen doctors are sending you back to work early, we can help you file to get a separate medical opinion. We can also advise regarding lifetime future medicals — your right to ongoing care by the same treating physician — after you have settled your workers' compensation claim. Lastly, a construction accident caused by a third party may be grounds for a personal injury lawsuit. We can determine if you have a claim for damages beyond workers' comp.
