I was working on a ship. We were in Alaska on a rig heading back to Seattle when I slipped and injured my shoulder. The company didn’t care much. After I had surgery, they didn’t give me enough time to heal and get ready.
I’m the only provider for my family, and now I’m injured and unable to work. They put up a financial fight while I was in pain, and I had bills to pay. Not being able to provide for my family was too much to handle.
I went to Zehl & Associates because I had heard so much about them. They had helped with a lot of cases, including the Deepwater Horizon. I thought, this is the law firm that can stand up to my company.
To me, Zehl & Associates were like family. They called to check on me, asked how I was feeling, and were always there for me.
I would definitely recommend Zehl & Associates to anybody who is injured—whether a friend, co-worker, or anyone who feels like they don’t have options. This is the firm you can count on.
