Workers' Compensation

Many employees believe that getting workers' compensation is an easy matter if they've been injured on the job, but often that is not the case. Workers’ compensation claims in Alabama must be handled directly with the insurer of your employer. If the insurance company chooses to deny your claim, for whatever reason, your only resource is state court.

The workers' compensation lawyers at Ables, Baxter, Parker, Pippin & Avant, P.C. will handle your case from the time of injury to financial settlement. We protect your interests and fight to ensure that your employer and the insurance company do not unfairly deny your claim or award you less money than you deserve, leaving you with unpaid medical bills.

If talking to the insurance company hasn't resolved your workman's comp claim, contact us.

Understanding Your Injury

The first step in preparing your workers' compensation case is ensuring that you receive a thorough and accurate medical evaluation. We work with medical experts and therapists to get a clear picture of your on-the-job injury, work-related disability, or occupational diseases.

We work with vocational counselors to get a vocational assessment and an impairment rating. This helps us understand the short-and long-term impact your injury will have on your ability to work and conduct your daily life.

Building the Case for Maximum Recovery

With a successful workers' compensation claim, you may get money for lost time, past and future medical costs, and a lump sum payment for any permanent disability (partial or full disability) from injuries such as repetitive stress injuries, back injuries, neck injuries, loss of limbs, or loss of function.

If your workplace injuries were caused by someone other than your employer—for example, if your construction accident was caused by a careless truck driver delivering goods to the job site—you may have a third party personal injury lawsuit.

The personal injury attorneys at Ables, Baxter, Parker, Pippin & Avant, P.C. take many workers’ compensation and personal injury cases to court each year. We understand the complex medical and legal issues that these cases involve and work diligently to ensure maximum recovery for your injuries.
