Industrial Accident Claims by State
Work injury law is set state by state: notice and filing deadlines, whether partial fault reduces or defeats a claim, and who is immune from suit all differ. Gerald Lee Cross Jr is licensed in Missouri and Kansas and handles those claims directly; claims elsewhere are handled with co-counsel licensed in that state.
