Dugan & Associates - Workers' Comp - Social Security Disability

"He's intelligent and knowledgeable. He knows the law and he knows exactly how to respond to what the other side does." - Client Mary R., Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh workers' compensation attorney Mitchell Dugan and the other injury accident compensation lawyers at Dugan & Associates concentrate on maximizing the recovery on your claim. Whenever it appears that more than one source of recovery might be available to compensate you for your losses, we'll pursue all of your options for recovery.

For example, we can file a workers' comp claim with your employer and then file a personal injury lawsuit against the third party whose negligence caused your accident. For more information about our ability to cover all of your injury compensation needs, contact the Pittsburgh Social Security disability attorneys and workers' comp lawyers at Dugan & Associates.

We can proceed against your employer on a workers' compensation claim for recovery of lost wages and coverage of your medical expenses after a workplace accident. We can also represent you if your claim is denied, or if after a period of collecting benefits you receive a notice of a petition to terminate, suspend, or modify your benefits. Additionally, we can advise you about the vocational issues concerning your ability to work when partially disabled, and challenge any attempts to show that suitable work is available to you in your labor market.

With or without a workers' comp or Social Security Disability Insurance benefits claim, we can also represent you in a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, even those involving occupational diseases or especially serious injuries suffered in:

• Industrial accidents,
• Motor vehicle accidents, or
• Premises liability situations involving unsafe property conditions.
