Federal workplace safety regulations exist because ladder falls kill and seriously injure workers every year. When employers follow the rules, workers are safer. When they don’t, workers get hurt in ways that could have been prevented. In ladder injury claims, OSHA violations are among the most powerful evidence available, because they demonstrate that the employer […]

Insurance companies aren’t on your side. That sounds harsh, but it’s the fundamental truth every injury victim needs to understand. While adjusters may sound sympathetic on the phone, their job is to pay you as little as possible or deny your claim entirely. Our friends at Hickey & Turim, S.C. see these tactics play out […]

The insurance company makes you an offer. It seems low, but maybe it’s fair. You’re not sure how to respond. Do you counter? Accept? Ask for more time to think? Every decision during settlement negotiations affects how much you ultimately recover. Our friends at Hickey & Turim, S.C. see victims make the same negotiation mistakes […]

Workers’ compensation provides important protection after a workplace ladder fall. But it doesn’t cover everything. Pain and suffering isn’t compensable under workers’ comp. Full lost wages aren’t replaced, only two-thirds. And the insurer who pays workers’ compensation benefits has a stake in minimizing what they pay, which doesn’t always align with what a seriously injured […]

The First Hours Matter Most An accident happens in seconds. The decisions you make in the hours and days that follow determine whether you’ll receive fair compensation or struggle to prove your claim months later when memories fade and evidence disappears. Our friends at Hickey & Turim, S.C. emphasize that protecting your legal rights begins […]

Insurance companies don’t take your word for anything. They don’t care how much pain you’re in or how the accident disrupted your life. They want proof, and medical records provide that proof in a way nothing else can. Our friends at Hickey & Turim, S.C. discuss how medical documentation is the single most important evidence […]

Most people who’ve been injured in an accident think about their medical bills first. That makes sense. The bills arrive quickly, the numbers are concrete, and they’re the most obvious way to measure what an injury has cost. But Wisconsin personal injury law allows injured people to recover for much more than what the hospital […]

Rear-end collisions feel like the most clear-cut accidents there are. Someone hit you from behind. They must be at fault. End of story. In reality, Wisconsin’s fault analysis is more nuanced than that, and insurance companies know it. Understanding how fault actually gets evaluated in Wisconsin rear-end cases, and what arguments come up most often, […]

Two nearly identical cases can settle for vastly different amounts. Same type of accident. Similar injuries. Comparable medical bills. Yet one victim recovers $50,000 while the other gets $150,000. The difference isn’t luck. It’s strategy. Our friends at Hickey & Turim, S.C. emphasize that settlement value depends on deliberate actions victims take throughout the claims […]

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.
