Back, neck and shoulder injuries in the course of work
Industrial and construction accidents
On-duty vehicle accidents

Our attorneys have been very successful in helping clients qualify for permanent total disability for such conditions as:

Cervical (neck) and lumbar (low back) injuries, including a worker left paraplegic after fracturing vertebrae in a 15-foot fall
Work-related lung diseases, including a man who developed emphysema (COPD) from inhaling fumes at his aluminum smelting job
Various psychiatric/psychological disability claims arising from a workplace injury

Mr. Moore makes the effort to review medical records, have clients reevaluated, and take depositions from treating physicians, surgeons, psychiatrists, and vocational rehabilitation experts to get full workers’ compensation benefits.

If a third party was responsible for the injury (such as a construction subcontractor, machine manufacturer or negligent driver), we aggressively pursue available negligence and product liability claims and coordinate them with workers’ compensation to maximize our client’s recovery.
