Workers' Compensation
Workers compensation provides benefits for employees injured on the job, covering medical expenses, wage replacement, and disability payments regardless of fault under Wisconsin's no-fault system.
Truck Accidents
Truck accident cases involve collisions with commercial vehicles, often resulting in severe injuries due to the size and weight disparity between trucks and passenger vehicles.
Car Accidents
Car accident claims address injuries and property damage resulting from vehicle collisions, including compensation for medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accident cases involve unique challenges as riders face greater injury risks and often encounter bias from insurance companies when seeking fair compensation.
Slip & Fall Accidents
Slip and fall cases hold property owners liable when hazardous conditions like wet floors, poor lighting, or uneven surfaces cause injuries to visitors or customers.
Wrongful Death
Wrongful death claims provide compensation to families when a loved one dies due to another party's negligence, covering funeral costs, lost income, and loss of companionship.

After a construction accident, prioritize your safety and seek immediate medical attention, even for seemingly minor injuries. Report the incident to your supervisor and ensure an accident report is filed. Document everything: take photos of the scene, equipment involved, and your injuries if possible. Collect witness contact information and preserve any damaged safety equipment or clothing. Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies before consulting an attorney. Contact our construction accident lawyers promptly to protect your rights, as early legal guidance can significantly impact your workers compensation claim and potential third-party liability case.
Yes, Wisconsin’s workers compensation system is “no-fault,” meaning you’re generally entitled to benefits regardless of who caused your workplace injury. You don’t need to prove your employer was negligent, and your own mistakes typically won’t disqualify you from receiving compensation. Workers compensation covers medical expenses, wage replacement, and disability benefits for work-related injuries and illnesses. However, injuries caused by intoxication or intentional self-harm may be excluded. Our workers compensation attorneys ensure you receive all benefits you’re entitled to under Wisconsin law, protecting your rights throughout the claims process.
Wisconsin law requires you to notify your employer of a work injury within 30 days of the accident or when you became aware the injury was work-related. While you have up to 12 years from the injury date to file a formal claim, immediate reporting is crucial. Delays can jeopardize your benefits and allow insurance companies to dispute your claim. Our workers compensation lawyers recommend contacting us immediately after an injury to ensure proper documentation, timely filing, and protection of your rights. Don’t let deadlines prevent you from receiving the compensation you deserve.
Workers compensation provides no-fault benefits covering medical expenses and partial wage replacement for on-the-job injuries, regardless of fault. However, you cannot sue your employer for additional damages through workers comp. A personal injury lawsuit becomes possible when a third party (not your employer) caused your construction accident—such as equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, or property owners. These lawsuits can recover full damages including pain and suffering, complete lost wages, and punitive damages. Our attorneys evaluate both options to maximize your recovery, potentially pursuing workers compensation benefits while simultaneously filing personal injury claims against responsible third parties.
I was very apprehensive about contacting a lawyer for my workmen’s comp. claim. I’ve never had any good experience in the lawyer department. But thanks to Joshua Turim, I have new found gratitude! To say he went above and beyond for me is an understatement. Anytime I contacted him, he answered me lightning fast. Even though my claim wasn’t a huge amount, he still went out of his way to get me what I deserved. If anyone you know needs a great lawyer, Josh and his firm is the place to call!!

He settled my case after many months of preparation and ultimate negotiation, keeping me informed along the way. He knew what I expected for an outcome, and explained every detail in laymen’s terms. Josh took all the time necessary to explain the process. I never felt like I didn’t understand. I recommend Josh to anyone looking to resolve a workers’ compensation claim without additional strain.

I found him from the Yellow Pages and after consulting with several other of his peers I hired Josh. The fit was right. He’s been my counsel for nearly 5 years now. My case was not an easy one. Workers’ Comp moves slow and methodical. Believe me, I’m thankful I had a professional who is very experienced and knowledgeable about the system on my side. We’ve reached a very good settlement and I know I can continue to count on Joshua Turim should any need arise.
Thanks Josh.
