Whether you’re looking to fill up your prescriptions or shop for groceries or light snacks for game day, Walgreens is the place to be. With a shop in just about every corner in every town and city in America, Walgreens has cornered the service market and then some. Working at Walgreens means working in a fast-paced environment suited for individuals who don’t mind being on their feet for the duration of the day as well as dealing with customers of different persuasions and temperaments. Walgreens offers different work opportunities from store attendants to cleaners, to inventory clerks to accountants, cashiers, pharmacists and so much more. because of the fast pace at which work moves at Walgreens, it’s not uncommon for workers to be asked to work a little bit more as well as not take regular breaks. This sets the stage for the occurrence of injuries due to the impaired cognition usually seen in distracted or fatigued workers. OSHA is a government work safety agency that has clear guidelines on worker safety which are supposed to be enforced by the store manager or the management of any company. Flouting or breaking these OSHA regulations often leads to injuries, and the injured must be compensated or be made whole so they can continue being productive members of society. While workers’ compensation exists for this very purpose, it is key that you engage the services of an attorney in order to make sure that you get maximum compensation, and we’re here to help with that.

Now, litigation is just about the only way to help catastrophically injured clients get the compensation they deserve as insurance companies are not fond of making large payouts even when the situation warrants it. Most law firms, on the other hand, go the insurance company negotiations route which may leave you high and dry after a few months, with your injuries still needing medical care as well as lost wages discontinued. In addition to having a bilingual staff (hablamos Espanol), we ensure that all cases are handled by a real attorney, and not a paralegal.
