Testimonial

  • I was hurt at work when a beam fell injuring my right leg. My medical care through workers compensation was slow, but eventually I had surgery to repair my leg. The surgery did not help much and I ended up with permanent work restrictions. My employer of almost 10 years decided to fire for a made-up reason instead of letting me continue to work so I called Corey for help. Thankfully, before calling Corey I did not agree to a settlement with the insurance company because if I had I would have lost more than $90,000. If you are wondering if you are owed more workers compensation benefits call Corey's office before discussing any settlement with the insurance company. They won't charge you for the call and only get paid if they win more money than the insurance company voluntarily pays. Robert of Des Moines (Machine Operator)
  • "Thorough and efficient work!" -Dave of Des Moines, Iowa Chris of Johnston, Iowa (Factory Worker)
  • "Without Corey's help I would have not only received no money, but would have had to use my health insurance to pay for the surgery." Patty of Grinnell, Iowa
  • "Without Corey's help I would have been lost in a foreign world and would not have received the compensation that he was able to get for me." David of Madrid
