Gary Alan Jackson

I have a strong interest in medicine and the law. Workers compensation law is a natural fit for me and I am blessed to be able to work with both doctors and lawyers every day. My interest in medicine definitely provides me an edge, a greater understanding, of my clients injuries and how the long term effects of a work injury can dramatically impact the ability to work and earn a living. in my practice of work comp law I am routinely questing doctors about their diagnosis, prognosis and treatment plans. This is very challenging yet very rewarding and it certainly results in consistently better and more just settlements for our clients.

Q. Injured at work, seeking advice on hiring a lawyer for workers' compensation.

March 3, 2025

A: yes, you should hire an experienced workers compensation attorney to help you through the complex work comp process. The claims adjuster at the insurance company assigned to your case, is your opponent, your adversary. The insurance company has a legal obligation to the employer and shareholders of the insurance company, first and foremost. So, the insurance company has named the person who will battle against you. Not only that, but they have attorneys to advise them the best ways to delay, deny, and otherwise reduce as much as possible your monetary compensation.

Who will you hire to battle for you? It costs the same whether you hire a first-year lawyer or 30-year veteran of work comp battles; 15% of the settlement of your case is set aside for attorney fees. There are no other fees, and you pay nothing out of pocket, ever.

so yes, you should always have an experienced attorney on your side. ... Read More
