Why Do You Need a West Virginia Work Injury Attorney?
So-called tort-reform laws have eroded workers’ rights and grossly favor the insurance companies adjusting the claims.
As a result, Workers’ Compensation laws say that you can only hold your employer accountable for damages above the dollar benefits paid by the workers’ comp insurance if you can prove the employer acted with deliberate intent. In other words, your employer deliberately put you in harm’s way by violating safety regulations, lack of training, or negligence. Providing that proof is where we come in.
We hire experts skilled in evaluating specific workplace environments and medical and financial experts who calculate the economic damages your work injury has caused to your finances, including past, present, and future lost wages. Importantly, these expert reports and testimonies support your claim and greatly help you to maximize your recovery.
Work injury accidents change a family’s life forever. Contact Jeff Robinette for help today.
In addition, in many workplace injury and wrongful death cases, there may also be a third party who can be held liable for negligence. The third party can include the manufacturer of a piece of defective industrial equipment, the property owner, or a subcontractor working on the same job site. We can help hold all liable parties accountable for your workplace injuries.

Power Plant Wrongful Death

In 2006, the West Virginia coalfields were devastated by the largest coal mine explosion that had occurred in decades, and our law firm successfully represented the family of one of the deceased coal miners, by obtaining a substantial settlement for our client’s family.
Carbon Monoxide Death
A newly-married couple moved into a rental property late one evening, switched on the thermostat in their new apartment, and was overcome within hours by carbon monoxide from a faulty furnace pipe.

Mr. Robinette was able to obtain for two of the families a substantial settlement that far exceeded their expectations.
