Workers Compensation 85%

I represent injured workers both administratively, before the Industrial Commission of Ohio and the Bureau of Workers' Compensation, and in the court room throughout the state of Ohio.

19 years | 200 cases

85%
Social Security & Disability 10%

I represent a select number of clients throughout the application process for Disability Insurance Benefits (Social Security Disability) and Supplemental Security Income. I represent before administrative law judges, and if necessary before the federal district court.

19 years | 20 cases

10%
Personal Injury 5%

Due to time-constraints related to workers' compensation, I hand a minimal number of personal injury cases, including products liability cases and automobile accidents. Other attorneys at Malek & Malek are primarily responsible for these cases.

Lawyer Review

Very good lawyer!! Would recommend his services for any BWC case. He is very knowledgable about the law and very striaght forward with the client and their family. He hides nothing and keeps you informed about the case. He does not keep you wondering what's going on with your case, but keeps you ...updated if anything changes or doesn't change. He is always prepared for court hearings and prepares the client ahead of time so you know what to expect. One of the best BWC lawyers that I have ever dealt with!!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
