Ames Workers' Compensation Lawyers

Fort Dodge Employment Law Attorneys

The law firm of Johnson, Kramer, Good, Mulholland, Cochrane & Driscoll, P.L.C. assists clients in Fort Dodge and throughout north-central and northwest Iowa in the filing of workers’ compensation claims. If you have been injured or become ill as the result of something you encountered at your workplace, you may be entitled to a settlement from your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance policy. Attorney Neven J. Mulholland can help you to determine whether you have a case for a workers’ compensation payment.

• The Iowa Workers’ Compensation Act is designed to provide certain benefits to employees who sustain injuries, occupational illnesses or occupational hearing loss arising out of and in the course of their employment. Benefits are payable regardless of fault and are administered according to Iowa law.
• Workers’ compensation benefits may provide payment for all reasonable and necessary medical care incurred to treat the work-related injury. Those who are unable to work temporarily or who are permanently disabled may be entitled to compensation for their lost weekly wages.
