Fighting For Injured Workers

Many of us take it for granted that our workplaces are safe. We go about our days completely oblivious to the potential dangers until, one day, a serious accident occurs. If you were injured while on the job, you most likely have a workers’ compensation claim.

Shawn Hammond is a lawyer prepared to fight for justice. With 25 years of experience as a soldier and 25 years of experience as an attorney, he has the strength and knowledge to persevere when things get tough.

Are Your Best Interests Being Protected?

Employers and insurance companies want to settle your workers’ compensation claim as quickly and inexpensively as possible. They may deny or undervalue legitimate claims or pressure you into returning to work before you are ready. If you’ve become permanently disabled, you may even be pressured into accepting a low cash settlement.

Shawn P. Hammond and Associates, can sort out the details, separating fact from fiction. Attorney Shawn Hammond works to get what you and your family need. Call before you make an error that affects your right to recover.

Third-Party Claims Are Complicated

As both a personal injury and workers’ compensation lawyer, Shawn knows how to identify potential third-party claims. A third-party claim may arise when a party outside of your employer is partially responsible for your injuries. For example, you may have been injured by a defective machine. Here, he can pursue a workers’ compensation claim as well as an action against the manufacturer of the defective machine and all others in the chain of distribution.

Knowledgeable. Aggressive. Strategic.

Since workers’ compensation is such a complex area of the law, it is relatively easy for injured workers to become confused about the process. As a result, it is easy for employers and insurance companies to take advantage of someone who suffered a workplace injury. In these trying times, securing the counsel of an experienced attorney may be your best option for recovering full benefits.
