Workers'
compensation
Worker’s compensation benefits are controlled by state statutes. These statutes uniformly allow the worker’s compensation plan to seek third-party recoveries when the plan participant is injured, and the benefits are paid because of those injuries. These statutes also require the plan to have its own attorney, or your reimbursement claim is reduced by 1/3 or more.
The Key to Success with these Claims
​
Subrogation claims in workers’ compensation are personal injury cases—requiring skilled legal representation, not just administrative oversight. Many large subrogation vendors rely on software and non-legal staff, missing opportunities for full recovery. At Bratton Firm Subrogation Services, we offer a proven, attorney-led approach to ensure maximum reimbursement for your claims.
​

300%
Studies show that companies recover up to 300% more in workers' compensation subrogation claims when attorneys, rather than automated systems or non-legal staff, handle the process..

Why Compelling Legal Representation Matters
Worker's compensation plans are subject to state law, and we can eliminate unnecessary deductions, such as the plaintiff’s attorney’s fees, that reduce your recoveries.
​
Your insured has an attorney working against your interests. Their goal is to manipulate settlements and misrepresent facts to diminish or eliminate your subrogation claim. You need your own dedicated attorney—at no additional cost—to counter these tactics and protect your rights.
​
Traditional subrogation vendors fail to recognize these challenges because they rely on non-legal staff who lack the expertise to handle personal injury claims. These vendors are chronically misled into accepting less than what you are entitled to.
​
The Financial Impact of Proper Subrogation
Subrogation claims represent a major financial recovery opportunity for payers and providers. However, choosing the right firm can make a significant difference.
At Bratton Firm Subrogation Services, you gain:​
• Attorney-led investigations to uncover & maximize third-party claims
• 40+ years of legal expertise in subrogation & personal injury law
• Proven results in securing full recoveries for our clients
A Unique Opportunity
Unlike traditional health plan subrogation, workers' compensation carriers know key facts about a claim before paying benefits. However, state statutes control subrogation recoveries and many plans lose substantial funds due to improper handling.
​
Workers’ compensation carriers have the right to be reimbursed for medical and indemnity payments when a third party is at fault. However, these statutes often reduce recoveries by applying a pro-rata share of the plaintiff’s attorney’s fees and expenses.
​
This can be avoided. By retaining your attorney to prosecute subrogation claims, you can eliminate these unnecessary deductions and maximize your recovery.
