Why Would Iowa Injury Attorneys Offer a Work Injury Book at No Cost?

At age 14 Corey began working for his grandfather in the concrete construction business during the summer school break.  The work was hard, hot, and long, but provided the framework for his character.  After he graduated from Newton high school, his mother purchased an appliance store and he began working on weekends and during the summer delivering refrigerators, washers, dryers and other heavy equipment.  He would also help his grandfather when he needed extra help on job sites.  After graduating from Central College in Pella he went onto law school at Drake in Des Moines.  After his first year of law school in 1995, he began working at Walker, Billingsley and Bair.  The years of working hard physical labor allows him to better understand his clients, most of whom have been injured working physically demanding jobs. 

After working his way through college, Iowa workers' compensation attorney Corey J. L. Walker cares about working Iowans and he has seen far too many work injury cases hurt because Iowans were not informed and made common, but damaging mistakes.

Also, whether you hire Corey or not, his mission is to educate Iowans about Iowa's workers' compensation laws because he has seen firsthand how sometimes good people are treated badly by insurance companies. 

Did You Know?  

The law requires every Iowa employer to obtain workers' compensation insurance for employees or for the employer to register with the State of Iowa as being self-insured , but...

  • To claim benefits you must prove that your injuries arose out of and in the course of your employment.
  • The insurance adjustor works for your employer and/or their insurance company and has no duty to protect your rights or even tell you what the law is.

    All injured Iowa workers are entitled by law to ten basic rights. These rights include: 
  • Lifelong medical care related to the work injury
  • Payment of medical care including mileage at $.50 per mile for mileage incurred after July 1, 2010
  • Cash payments while you recover and cannot work because of your work injury
  • . . .
  • To learn the other basic rights and much more request a copy of our book.

If you work for an Iowa-based company, you may be able to file for Iowa Workers' Compensation benefits even if you were injured on the job in another state. 

Communication - We use the latest computer technology to efficiently manage your case and communicate quickly and effectively. Our attorneys will explain the legal process to you, return your calls promptly, and send you copies of important letters and medical information.

Notes:
Here are some cases that we have successfully resolved. Remember that each case is different. Once a case is in the hands of a judge, it is out of our control. We have had cases in which we were pleasantly surprised by the verdict and others in which we were disappointed. We do not win every case and sometimes we obtain a verdict which we are not able to collect the money owed from the defendant due to bankruptcy or other reasons. However, we do believe that significant trial experience and results are factors that people may use to choose one attorney over another. With these things in mind, here are some of our results which are the total amount received before the deduction of attorney fees and costs:
