When Jack Mixell felt an insurance company was pushing him to settle his workers’ compensation case before he was finished with treatment for a broken neck, he knew what he needed.

“I needed a lawyer,” he said.

Mr. Mixell’s journey began when he suffered an injury on the job, leaving him with a skull fracture and a broken neck. One year and one surgery later, Mr. Mixell said he realized he needed help. On the referral of a friend and after seeing a television ad, he called the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin.

After consulting with our workers' compensation lawyers, Mr. Mixell’s case went to mediation.

“From my viewpoint [the mediation] was very dramatic. It felt scary,” he said. “In the end we did extremely well.”

While Mr. Mixell said his mediation “felt scary,” he also said the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin helped make him feel comfortable along the way.

“The best part was my attorney was ready to get on whatever was coming up,” he said. “He was ready to get right on top of matters, ready to work for me.”

Two years after he first called our offices, he remains glad he did.

“I don’t know what I’d do, how I would survive if I hadn’t called James Scott Farrin,” he said.

Workers’ Compensation

“Workers’ Compensation” refers to a system of laws that protect the rights of workers who become injured while on the job. Each state in the U.S. has its own set of workers’ compensation laws detailing the specific benefits an injured person is entitled to and the procedures for obtaining such benefits. If you’ve been injured on the job, consider securing the assistance of the workers’ compensation team at the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin.
