The firm describes representing workers from healthcare, manufacturing, law enforcement, firefighting and EMS, roofing, janitorial and custodial work, landscaping, restaurants, construction, part-time employees and independent contractors.
The site publishes a case verdicts page and client reviews, but past results do not indicate what any new claim is worth or how it will end. Whether workers' compensation benefits apply to a particular situation, what they may be worth, and any time limits that apply are questions for the firm directly and for the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation — not for a website summary. The firm's own disclaimer states: "The information you obtain at this site is not, nor is it intended to be, legal advice. You should consult an attorney for advice regarding your individual situation."

On how legal fees work, the site says: "it typically doesn't cost any upfront money to hire a workers' comp lawyer to handle your claim. Lawyers in the workers' compensation arena work almost exclusively on a contingency-fee basis. This means that they don't charge the injured worker any money up front and only get paid if they recover money for that individual."
The same page quotes Georgia law (O.C.G.A. 34-9-108) and states that it "caps an attorney's fees in a workers' compensation case at 25% of the settlement or weekly benefits," and that "all fees over $100 must be approved by the State Board of Workers' Compensation." That is the firm's description of the statutory cap and board approval, not a quote of what any particular case would cost.
- The firm's disclaimer adds
- "Contingent attorneys' fees refers only to those fees charged by attorneys for their legal services. Such fees are not permitted in all types of cases. Court costs and other additional expenses of legal action usually must be paid by the client."
Anyone who needs the actual fees, costs and terms for their own claim should ask the firm at (678) 802-8650 during the free consultation.

Help after a denied workers' comp claim in Georgia
One of the firm's published service areas is helping injured workers whose Georgia workers' compensation claim has been denied. The page states that "many workers' compensation claims in Georgia are denied by insurance companies, leaving the injured worker surprised, angry and confused," and that the firm's "Atlanta workers' compensation lawyers have decades of experience representing injured workers who have been denied benefits." It says the firm knows "how to appeal a workers' comp denial."
The page lists the categories of workers' compensation covered under Georgia law as medical bills, lost wages, travel expenses to and from the doctor, vocational rehabilitation, and death benefits paid to a fatally injured worker's family. It does not, and this summary does not, say whether any particular person qualifies for any of them or what they would be worth — that depends on the individual claim and is a question for the firm and the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation.

The contact page also names situations the firm says injured workers need representation for: claims that are denied, medical care that is delayed, wage benefits that are reduced, or pressure to return to work too soon.
The site urges people not to wait to contact an attorney, and it discusses time limits on filing a Georgia work injury claim. Any deadline, notice requirement or limitation period that applies to a specific claim should be confirmed directly with the firm and with the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation rather than taken from a website.
There is no cost to ask: the firm offers a free consultation. Call (678) 802-8650 or use the contact form to schedule one.
