Suffering a serious work injury can be life changing. Often times the workers’ compensation process is not explained to you and can be complicated and confusing leaving you wondering if you are doing the right thing for yourself and your family. Why go it alone when there is so much at stake?

When it comes to on the job injuries the attorneys at Johnson & Legislador use their extensive experience and comprehensive understanding of Iowa workers’ compensation law to maximize the workers’ compensation benefits our clients are entitled to under the law and get the job done right. We are familiar with all types of workers' compensation claims including back/spinal injuries, shoulder injuries, neck injuries, repetitive motion injuries, nerve disorders (e.g. pinched nerves, CRPS) and catastrophic injuries (e.g. amputation, brain injuries, and death). We represent clients in workers’ compensation matters throughout Eastern and Central Iowa before the Iowa Industrial Commissioner and in Iowa district courts and appellate courts.

We also represent those workers who may live outside of the state of Iowa, such as truck drivers and construction workers, who are injured in the state of Iowa or were working for an Iowa company at the time of injury. We represent injured workers on a contingency fee basis, which means we will not charge you attorney fees if we do not recover benefits for your injury.

Our attorneys also handle coverage issues and disputes and provide general advice regarding the proper handling of claims and the development of employer policies designed to properly handle workers’ compensation issues. We are also one of the few Eastern Iowa law firms that offer mediation services specifically for workers’ compensation cases to assist others in resolving their cases before trial.
