Susan Lavian

Initially, I started handling my worker's compensation case myself. Although I have almost two decades of case management in my professional background, this case was too close and personal and quite frankly, too exhausting to handle on my own. After loads of legal paperwork, as well as, the frustrat...ion of not receiving the appropriate rehabilitative care, I gave up trying to handle the case myself. I found Susan in an online Internet search. What made me want to hire her was that she indicated she was ethical, had many years of experience in Worker's Compensation cases and has served as a Pro-tem Judge for Worker's Compensation cases. As soon as Susan took over my case, she proved to be the lighthouse in the storm. Her professionalism, direction and calm demeanor allowed me to trust and let go of handling the case and concentrate on getting better. She also fought for all the benefits I was entitled to receive. My case recently settled, thanks to Susan. Looking back in hind-sight, I realize there were so many legal aspects to handling timelines and tons of paperwork in a Worker's Compensation case, that it really puts an injured worker at a disadvantage, when they are already at a disadvantage after being injured. The help of a caring, professional attorney on my side made a world of difference in my case. I now know why the Worker's Compensation claims adjuster, initially assigned to my case, didn't want me to get an attorney when I mentioned that I was seeking one out. Susan is an exceptional, ethical, consummate professional and her many years of experience proved to be evident in the handling of my case. I am beyond grateful to her for helping me get the care and benefits I needed, and for settling my case beyond my satisfaction, as now I can move on from the injury and positively move forward in my life.

I was very pleased with the Legal Services provided by Ms. Lavian. Not only is she an excellent Workers Comp Attorney, but also an honest person who provides good advice and allows you to make your own decisions. She has a pleasant personality and is not pushy. I was referred to good doctors and got ...the therapy I needed. The outcome was positive. I found her on the internet and was impressed by her credentials. She also helped me with another legal matter.

When I first met Susan I was so frustrated by the previous attorneys in the insurance end of the matter and I knew the field well, having worked as a legal secretary for numerous lawyers throughout my 30 years as a legal secretary, I saw through their games. Susan was quite a different lawyer and to...ok complete charge of my case beginning with the doctors, the treatment and plans for same, the insurance company that promised to do its "best" for the appropriate treatment of the insured's employee (and failed). Susan is well versed in the field of Workers' Compensation and she keeps her clients informed throughout the process to settlement, judging from her performances with me. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking first rate, no nonsense representation in any Workers' Compensation case and if you are reading this and dissatisfied with the current treatment, give Susan a call immediately.
