Do You Know Your Rights as an Injured Worker?
Unfortunately, most workers do not fully comprehend their rights after an injury on the job. It's understandable; workers' compensation is a complex process with numerous rules and exceptions. And while employers are required to have workers' compensation insurance, they are not on the worker's side after an injury; they are looking out for their own interests.
Who will protect your rights if you are injured on the job? Larry Hollington, Attorney at Law, has been practicing workers' compensation law for 28 years. As a former employer/insurance company defense attorney for workers' comp, he has extensive knowledge of Georgia workers' compensation law. He knows how to counter the tactics employers use when denying workers' comp claims.

Workers' compensation cases are taken on a contingency fee basis. If we accept your case, there is no fee unless we recover benefits for you.
We Stand Up for Georgia Workers
Our comprehensive services start with helping people file a workers' compensation claim. We can also pursue an existing workers' compensation claim, even if it has already been denied. It is critical that you and your family receive the financial benefits as well as the medical benefits available to you. We also represent families of workers killed in fatal workplace accidents.
The type of benefits you receive depends on the severity of your injury. Workers with permanent injuries or disabilities, such as head or brain injuries, are eligible for a higher level of benefits than workers with temporary injuries or disabilities.
Carpal tunnel and repetitive stress injuries are extremely common work injuries. Repetitive use also leads to knee, ankle and leg injuries and can be a cause of back and neck injuries as well. A traumatic accident or failed surgery can result in chronic pain/RSD which may prevent you from working.
Our lawyers represent injured workers from any occupation, including construction, manufacturing, nursing, city or county government, meat packing and office work. We will also represent people who build the new reactors at Plant Vogtle.
