My Minnesota Workers Compensation Lawyer Retired, Is My Case Closed? Who Will Help?

Every year a few Minnesota workers compensation attorneys retire or pass away.  In this past year a few lawyers stopped practicing law; Dennis Atchison, Chris Middlebrook, Bill Krueger and Carter Bergen.  These were fine lawyers who did excellent jobs representing their clients and will be missed by their colleagues and clients. 

If your former attorney is no longer practicing law or you are unable to locate him or her Atkinson Law Office is here to assist you.  We have a long reputation assisting the former clients of lawyers who no longer practice workers compensation.  For many years Atkinson Law Office has been chosen by retiring lawyers to handle their practices after retirement.  Just as many esteemed lawyers have trusted Atkinson Law Office, you too can rely on our firm.  We are experts in obtaining and recovering old workers compensation files and settlement papers. 

One of the most common misunderstandings that injured workers have following a work injury is the belief that their case is "settled".  However, upon further investigation only a small part of the case is resolved or settled.  In some cases our research finds that there was never a settlement despite the injured worker's belief that their case settled. 

There is never a charge for us to review your old file or settlement papers to determine what if any claims remain open.  Atkinson Law Office has recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars in benefits that were "lost" due to unfortunate misunderstandings. 

If you would like to one of our attorneys to review your olf file, call today at 651-333-3636.  We have lawyers available 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week to help you.  For more information view our website www.mndisability.com .
