Workers' Comp

Tennessee Workers’ Compensation law is complicated.  The laws and the procedures required to obtain benefits are constantly changing.  As recently as June 6, 2011, the legal definition of “injury” and “personal injury” changed to exclude repetitive wear and tear type injuries.  The Tennessee General Assembly changes Tennessee Workers’ Compensation Law each time they are in session.  Without a knowledgeable and experienced workers’ compensation attorney on your side, how will you be able to navigate such a complex system?
