Workers’ compensation laws are designed to protect both the employees who are injured and the employer. While most workers’ compensation claims may be valid, some are fraudulent or just plain excessive and insurance companies, self-insured businesses and government agencies pay the price. This is where our workers’ compensation defense lawyers can help.
