The Law Makes it Easy To Change Your Lawyer

You can choose another lawyer at any time during the course of your claim, or after your claim has been denied or your benefits have been terminated.

If you are dissatisfied with your current lawyer, call our firm for a free, no-obligation consultation. We can review your situation, discuss the status of your claim and provide you with an objective opinion concerning the strength of your claim. If you decide to hire The Law Offices of John S. Eliasik, we will contact your current lawyer and request files and information concerning your case.

Changing Lawyers Will Not Increase The Fees You Pay

Attorney fees in workers’ compensation cases are set by law. These fees cannot exceed 20 percent of the compensation recovered, up to 20 percent of 364 weeks of the maximum Temporary Total Disability benefit, though there are some exceptions to this rule. This 20 percent fee is applied to the amount of the benefits you receive, regardless of how many lawyers you have retained over the course of your claim.

We handle workers’ compensation claims on a contingency basis. You will owe an attorney fee only if we obtain workers’ compensation benefits for you. There is no risk when you choose The Law Offices of John S. Eliasik.
