At Woodlawn Law Offices, experienced personal injury lawyer David Schmidt assists clients in handling a wide variety of legal issues, from social security disability to estate planning and family law to workers' comp. His practice is dedicated to helping clients address civil matters inside and outside the courtroom, and to providing representation to O’Fallon, Missouri-area residents and the surrounding counties of St. Charles, Lincoln, Warren, Franklin, and St. Louis Metropolitan.

If you get hurt on the job, your case will most likely fall under the Missouri Workers' Compensation and Missouri Second Injury Fund (“workers' comp”) laws. Under the workers' comp law, you are entitled to have your medical bills paid, a portion of your wages covered while you were off work due to the injury, and a lump sum payment for the disability that remains after your medical care ends.

Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for workers' compensation to fail to cover all the costs generated by the injuries and damages sustained by victims of accidents at work. This is why David Schmidt of Woodlawn Law Offices encourages clients to work with a personal injury lawyer with experience in worker’s comp cases to ensure the appropriate payments and settlements for injuries that occur in the workplace.
