Representing Injured Workers in Mississippi
Injured workers are often treated like second-class citizens. Doctors who work off referrals from insurance companies often attempt to push you back to work before you are ready, and the insurance company seems to always be looking for a reason to deny your claim. To protect your rights, you will need immediate and diligent representation from an experienced workers' compensation attorney.
At the Burghard Law Firm, we help injured workers obtain the benefits they deserve from workers' compensation. Attorney Ivan Burghard also handles appeals of denied workers' compensation claims. With offices in Hattiesburg and Brookhaven, we represent working people along the Mississippi Gulf Coast and throughout Southern Mississippi.
Time is of the Essence
Time is of the essence in workers' compensation claims. If you are a victim of a workplace injury or offshore injury, your career may be temporarily limited or even finished. We will file your claim quickly in order to get you the money you need to pay your bills.
Ivan Burghard will conduct a thorough investigation and bring in industry experts as needed to prove your case. Your right to collect workers' compensation benefits may be at stake, and we will aggressively defend that right. We will stay by your side until your case is resolved, even if it goes through the appeals process.
No industry is immune from workers' compensation claims. We represent employees of offshore oil companies, factories, chemical plants, chicken-processing facilities, trucking companies, schools, hospitals, local and federal governments, and other employers who can't work due to an occupational illness or injury.
Federal Workers' Compensation Claims
Federal workers' compensation is a complicated, if not mind-boggling, system. Attorney Ivan Burghard is one of only two attorneys in Mississippi who handles federal workers compensation claims. If you are an injured employee of the federal government, we will work with you, your employer, and federal adjustors to help you receive all of the benefits you deserve.
