Workers Compensation 45%

Our office works with injured workers to maximize recovery of disability benefits for on-the-job injuries, with specialization in the handling of catastrophic claims. Catastrophic claims are those involving the most severely injured workers, and their claims are entitled to additional compensation under Georgia law because of the severity of the injury and the long term nature of any resulting limitations on the ability to return to the workforce.

45%
Personal Injury 10%

We work with individuals who have been injured through the fault of another, regardless of how those injuries occurred. While commonly handling severe injury claims arising from car accidents, we also work with individuals who have been injured through medical malpractice, by damaged or improperly manufactured products, or who have been injured on the property of another person who allowed a dangerous condition to go unrepaired.

David Michael Cusson's Lawyer Endorsements

Workers compensation lawyer | Nov 19

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"David is probably one of the top Worker's Compensation attorneys in the area. He has a wonderfully calm disposition, which certainly gives his clients reassurance in tough times. I know from personal experience that clients out of work from injury require special handling, as the temptation is to settle too early, before obtaining full compensation for an injury. David's equanimty helps his clients wait until the optimum moment to receive maximum recovery."

"David is a terrific attorney who represents his clients to the fullest. I've discussed various areas of law with David, and he has a grasp on the changes in the law as they occur. He is a team player, and not afraid to reach out to other attorneys, whether on his "side" or the other. His respect in the community is impeccable, and I would not hesitate to recommend his services to someone."
