Counsel and defense for our fund and union clients when injury claims arise.
When a workplace injury claim arises, our fund and union clients have counsel who already knows their world.
Workers' compensation sits alongside the benefits and employment work we do every day for the same clients. We advise and defend our union and fund clients when claims arise, and we coordinate with the benefit funds whose coverage is involved.
Because we already handle the ERISA, labor, and employment side of our clients' affairs, we approach these matters with the full context of the relationship, keeping the focus on the people and the institutions behind them.
