    Sample matter

Sample matters, for illustration. Amounts are gross, before fees and costs. Every case is different, and past results don't guarantee a similar outcome.

How to read these results

The dollar figures are gross: the total before the attorney's fee and case costs come out. Most of these matters settled, and a settlement usually means the employer admits nothing.

What a case is worth depends on the facts, the proof, the employer and the law that applies. Past results don't guarantee a similar outcome in yours, and no lawyer can promise one.

Wondering what yours might be?

We'll tell you honestly what we think a case is worth, including when it isn't worth bringing.

No attorney fee unless we recover money for you. Case costs, like filing fees and deposition transcripts, are separate; your written agreement says who pays them and when.
