Atlanta Work Accident Attorney

Helping Injured Workers Since 1983
For more than 25 years, attorney Hank Barnett has protected the rights of injured workers from various occupations. Our attorney provides skilled, proven legal representation to workers whose pre-existing conditions have been aggravated by a work injury.
Did a Work Injury Cause Aggravation to Your Pre-Existing Condition?
For example, let's say you previously had surgery on your back, and then you re-injure your back at work. Under the law, your re-injury would be covered as a new accident. If you failed to disclose that you had previous back problems, when specifically asked during the hiring process, this could be a basis for denial of your workers' compensation claim.
The Barnett Law Firm has extensive experience exploring all avenues and options for full financial recovery. Even if you lied during the hiring process, it may still be possible to obtain workers' comp coverage. We can help with the initial application and all the way to an appeal if necessary.
