You’re not required to use your union’s lawyer for your workers’ comp case.
A lot of union members don’t realize that. And when you’re dealing with a serious injury, it matters who’s in your corner.
We’ve helped workers in construction, plumbing, electrical, healthcare, hospitality, and other trades across the DMV. These are hard-working people in high-risk jobs—people who can’t afford mistakes in their workers’ comp case.
And while many unions have lawyers on retainer, those attorneys often work for large firms that handle all kinds of issues—employment contracts, grievances, negotiations—not just workers’ comp. That’s a problem when you need real help after an injury.
We hear it all the time:
-
“They never call me back.”
-
“I don’t know what’s going on with my case.”
-
“They just pushed me to settle.”
That’s not how we do things.
We give our full attention to serious work injury cases—nothing else. We know what it takes to get surgery approved, maximize your weekly benefits, and protect your future. And yes, we work with union reps all the time. Many refer their members to us because they trust we’ll handle the case the right way.
So no—you’re not stuck with your union’s lawyer.
You have the right to choose the attorney who’s best for you. And everything you share with us stays completely confidential. We know how important trust is—especially if you’re worried about upsetting your union or losing support.
If you’re unsure about your current lawyer, or just want real answers about your case, we’re here to help.
