  • Episode 39 | What Are Your Workplace Injury Claim Options in Georgia?
    Jul 14 2026

    In Episode 39 of Georgia Legal Talks, attorney Michael Coker explains what workers need to know after a serious injury on the job in Georgia.

    When something goes wrong at a workplace, the company almost always steers the injured worker straight into a workers compensation claim and stops there.

    Michael explains why that is often the wrong place to stop. If a third party contributed to the incident, a separate liability claim may exist, one that can reach pain and suffering, full medical expenses, and lost income in ways workers compensation cannot.
