Workers’ Compensation Defense

Knowledgeable Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Defense Attorneys

If you need an effective legal defense against work compensation claims filed in Oklahoma, contact an experienced lawyer at McGivern & Gilliard. Since 1963, our workers’ compensation defense attorneys have been tirelessly defending businesses and insurance companies from undue liability after workplace injuries.

From our defense law offices in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Oklahoma, our lawyers have earned the respect of the legal community for our extensive experience and comprehensive knowledge in the area of workers’ compensation (previously known as “workman’s comp”) defense.

We Handle Defense Cases at Every Stage, From Response to Appeal

Our clients come from both large and small businesses and can have insurance through a major company or be self-insured. We defend both insurers and insureds from excessive or unjustified liability, and we expose petitioners who file fraudulent claims.

Though we may on occasion represent an injured worker, our firm focuses on handling the workers’ compensation case for the employer or the insurance company that holds the workers’ compensation policy for the business.

Whether the claim is in the initial stage or has progressed through to the appeal process, our lawyers have the skills to aggressively defend any workers’ comp, permanent partial disability (PPD), or permanent total disability (PTD) claim, including those related to:

• Carpal tunnel
• Trauma resulting from repetitive or cumulative injuries
• On-the-job exposure to harmful chemicals or toxins
• Wrongful death claims

All Cases Are Handled Thoroughly and Aggressively

When a client contacts McGivern & Gilliard after a workers’ compensation claim has been filed, our lawyers undertake a thorough investigation, interview essential witnesses, and take depositions. Based upon our findings, we make our qualified recommendations to clients on the best course of action.
