Bonner Kiernan has unique experience in handling employment issues and workers’ compensation claims.

We have represented employers at every stage of the workers' compensation process, including initial accident investigations, OSHA investigations, monitoring appropriate and necessary medical care and returning injured workers to gainful or alternate employment.  Our attorneys also assist in developing employee policy guidance and training seminars, and provide representation at Informal Conferences, Formal Hearings, de novo jury trials, alternative dispute resolution and appeals.

We focus on providing proven litigation strategies that assist our clients in managing workers’ compensation claims.  Complex workers’ compensation matters can involve pre-existing or subsequent injuries, with multiple employers and jurisdictions.  Currently, we represent and provide advice as coordinating counsel for several national employers, insurance carriers and their third-party administrators or risk managers.  

Our attorneys are experienced in training claims personnel in investigation and management of workers’ compensation claims to provide successful, cost effective, litigation strategies.  We also have specialized experience in returning injured workers back to work, selecting medical providers for independent medical evaluations, managing medical treatment in a cost effective manner, minimizing future exposure and resolving questionable or frivolous claims. 

Bonner Kiernan incorporates each employer's unique risk management philosophy into the claims resolution process to manage and resolve claims in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
