Firm Profile
Since founding Charfoos and Reiter P.C. in 1977 we have
represented employers in the defense of workers' compensation and related
actions.
We have found that by utilizing seasoned attorneys and
concentrating our practice in the area of workers' compensation, we can better
provide services for our clients in an efficient and cost effective manner. The
firm presently enjoys an "A.V." rating in the Martindale-Hubbell Law
Directory and has recently been recognized in the Martindale-Hubbell Register
of Preeminent Lawyers in the Labor and Employment Law section.
Our firm provides representation in every aspect of
workers' compensation law, including subrogation and insurance coverage
matters.
We are proud of the fact that our firm
played a major role in the creation of the National Workers’ Compensation
Defense Network and that we remain the only Michigan firm endorsed by NWCDN.
Our extensive experience and fine reputation in the field
of workers' compensation along with our knowledge of employment law matters
makes us unique among workers' compensation firms. Our working relationship
with several prominent labor and employment law firms, Nemeth Burwell P.C. and
Pilchak, Cohen and Tice P.C. allows us to defend the employer in the defense of
workers' compensation cases and work closely with co-counsel in the defense of
employment law actions.
Charfoos Reiter Hèbert P.C. represents insurance
carriers, self-insured employers and self-insured associations throughout
Michigan. Our clientele ranges from the smallest of companies up to and
including Fortune 500 companies.
Billing
Practices
We are proud of our reputation of offering top quality
legal services for a fair and reasonable fee. We are keenly aware of the
economic and emotional burden which litigation places on a client and its
employees. We seek to work with the client to make sure that its best interests
and long-range purposes are considered. The attention we pay to our billing
practices allows our clients to pay attention to the legal matter rather than
the legal bill. We continually strive to provide the best defense at the lowest
possible rate.
Seminars
Our firm is proud of our reputation for frequent and
innovative seminars ranging from small in-house seminars for clients (Lunch and
Learn) to seminars conducted out of state for out of state clients regarding
Michigan workers' compensation law. We participate in all NWCDN multi state
seminars and take part in national seminars on Workers’ Compensation issues
sponsored by the American Bar Association.
