High-Quality Work: Manage a diverse portfolio across workers compensation, dust diseases, statutory disputes, and damages claims for an enviable list of employer and government clients.
Running end-to-end Workers Compensation matters under Partner supervision.
Managing a strong file load while maintaining high levels of technical accuracy.
Building and maintaining relationships with sophisticated insurer and employer clients.
