Workers' Compensation

Springfield Workers' Compensation Lawyers

If you are injured on the job, unable to work or unsure of what your workers' compensation rights or benefits may be — please do not rely on your employer to give you the right answers. In fact, employers typically have just as many mistaken ideas about workers' compensation as everyone else.

Talk to a lawyer instead.

Our free consultations are not just brief interviews with a paralegal. At our firm, an attorney will consult with you in person. To schedule your free consultation — contact our Springfield, Missouri, law offices today.

At Hall, Ansley, Rodgers & Sweeney, P.C., we handle workers' compensation claims for injured workers in the Springfield area and throughout southwestern and central Missouri. Our goal in each workman's comp case is to secure full benefits for our client and to resolve his or her case as quickly as possible.

Our workers’ compensation experience is diverse and includes cases of repetitive stress injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, back injury, neck injury and more serious injuries like burns, amputation injuries, blindness and even death. To assist us in evaluating injuries and to help our clients understand the nature and extent of their injuries — we employ three nurse-paralegals. We also have access to experts in various fields who can help us develop the strongest possible case for each and every client.

What Should I Do After a Workplace Accident?

Missouri workers' compensation law underwent significant changes in 2005. These changes, in turn, have made it more difficult for injured workers to recover benefits in certain circumstances. That said — our firm has remained successful in securing clients the benefits they deserve.

One of the things you can do to help us succeed is to request proper medical attention immediately or as soon after the accident as you can. You should immediately notify your employer of your injury in writing. If you are completely honest with us about any prior medical conditions or injuries, we can and often have, obtained compensation stemming from a work related re-injury.

By law, attorneys' fees in workers' compensation cases are limited to a percentage of overdue benefits recovered. As such, we receive no attorneys' fees unless we are able to secure benefits for you.
