closure reconsideration appeal, we strive to ensure our clients
receive the workers’ compensation benefits they need to recover from
their work related injuries and return to work.
Third Party Personal Injury Claims
In addition to handling workers’ compensation claims, we regularly
pursue third party claims related to Oregon workers’ compensation.
