The one to hire!!!
I got hurt at work...and for the first few weeks workers comp was being very sweet, then all of a sudden they got mean and nasty. They made me cry on the phone. My husband said I needed a lawyer, so I called Karn's law group. My first experience was with Ebony his paralegal. I felt so stupid because I was crying to her on the phone. She was so sweet and said I needed to come in and talk to Jude. So I went in the very next day. He was so understanding, explained everything to me, and assured me he was going to fight hard for me...and he has....it is still ongoing...but I couldn't ask for anyone better to be on my side. They are on top of everything, and answer all your questions no matter how many times you call..lol...He is awesome and so is Ebony..they are an awesome team...I would recommend them to ANYONE who needs it!!!..You won't be disappointed....

Compassionate, dedicated to the client and determine to fight for your needs!!!!
In 2012 I was hurt at work and didn't know a thing about workers compensation or where to even begin!!! A friend of mine suggested I go and get a lawyer to better help me understand my rights as an injured employee. That is when I went to Karns Law group in Middletown RI and decided to meet with one of their worker compensation attorneys. I was then introduced to Jude Kerrison who took the time to sit with me and hear what happened and explain to me the several different options I had to choose from. Jude explained the law of workers compensation to me and the rights that I now had as an injured employee. As he built my case and did the leg work of getting the company to accept fault and take responsibility for my injury it was very reassuring to know I was in good hands. He made sure I was compensated every week for my time out, he made sure they approved the proper dr care I needed/ wanted and he faught in court when the time was necessary. If it wasn't for Jude fighting for my rights as an injured worker I would of been throw to the wolves and still suffering. I was able to get my holistic way of healing instead of being throw on to medicine and possibly back sugery at the age of 26 with the approval of chiropractic care and acupuncture which helped tremendously. After I received the proper treatment of healing with the help of Jude's hard work and dedication to getting me better we were able to settle my case for what I deserved and I was able to gain my life back. Now several years later I am still doing well and am extremely appreciative of all that Jude did to help me get back to where I was before my injury. He was by far one of the best attorneys I have ever had to deal with and I would highly recommend him to family and friends or anyone who may ever need a lawyer for a workers compensation case! Jude listened to my story, worked hard, and faught for my rights to get me what I deserved.
