Skillful Defense For All Workers’ Compensation Claims

At Mooney, Lenaghan, Westberg Dorn, L.L.C., we defend workers’ compensation claims involving workplace injuries of all varieties, including those caused by a single event and caused by repetitive activity. Our clients include insurance carriers, self-insured employers and third-party administrators throughout Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa and South Dakota.

The attorneys on our workers’ compensation team have past experience as insurance claims adjusters, legal auditors, and in-house counsel. This breadth of experience provides greater understanding of the needs of our clients’ internal processes and needs. When we accept a case, we assist with compensability analysis, identify defenses, and mitigate exposures. We have no fear of medically challenging or legally complex cases and are not afraid of going to trial or defending a claim before a state supreme court.

The Experience Necessary For Complex Claims

Our firm has a long-established track record of positive results, even in the most difficult of cases. We examine each case and use our knowledge and experience to weigh the risks and benefits of settlement versus trial. Having handled hundreds of cases throughout our jurisdictions of practice, we have a broad network of experts including physicians, medical examiners, rehabilitation specialists and vocational specialists. We frequently collaborate with these experts when a professional opinion or an expert witness is needed. Our lawyers often counsel clients on avoiding claims of bad faith by identifying issues with how a claim is being handled.

Building Relationships And Empowering Clients

When a client hires us, we seek to build a long-lasting relationship with them. Many of our current clients have been with us for decades. By getting to know a client’s business operations, culture and processes, we can better represent them. From the first notice of loss to the resolution of a claim, we provide outstanding counsel combined with attentive service.
