Georgia employers and their workers' compensation insurers have a valuable asset in Skedsvold & White, LLC, a law firm committed to defending business interests in connection with workplace injury claims.
Taking a Firm Stance in the Face of an Unwarranted Workers' Compensation Claim
We make it a point to accept as clients those employers and insurers that genuinely agree with our policy of ethical legal advocacy. On the other hand, when an excessive or unsubstantiated workers' compensation claim presents itself, an employer and/or the employer's insurer often has to take a firm stance to prevent exploitation through the workers' compensation process. A business owner, manager or officer has a duty to protect assets by preventing abuse of the system designed to serve as a safety net for employees with qualifying injuries or illnesses.
