Dedicated workers' compensation representation. Expert, compassionate, and personalized legal support for injured workers in Durango and the Four Corners region.
All reasonable and necessary medical treatment related to your workplace injury must be covered, including surgery, physical therapy, medication, and specialist referrals. Shannon ensures your treatment isn't unreasonably limited by insurers.
If your injury prevents you from working, you're entitled to temporary disability benefits — typically two-thirds of your average weekly wage. For permanent impairments, you may qualify for permanent partial or total disability benefits.
If your injury prevents you from returning to your previous job, you may be entitled to vocational rehabilitation services including job retraining, education, and placement assistance to help you transition to new employment.
