Unions · Louisville, KY
Three generations
of union service.
Tony’s father and grandfather were both card-carrying union members. The firm has stood with Louisville labor for as long as it has existed. If you’re a member, your case starts with people who already know the contracts, the comp boards, and the third-party-claim playbook.
01 · Who we stand with
Five Louisville locals.
One firm.
02 · Why union members hire Colyer Law
Same dues.
Better recovery.
If you’re injured on the job and you’re union, you may have two cases, not one: a workers’ comp claim against your employer and a third-party claim against whoever else caused the injury (a sub-contractor on the jobsite, a product manufacturer, a careless driver). The two run in parallel. The carriers play them against each other if they can.
We know your contract’s grievance procedure. We know how the Kentucky Department of Workers’ Claims processes a comp file and how a Section 342 settlement interacts with a third-party recovery. We coordinate with your business agent if you want us to, or stay out of the local entirely if you don’t.
Same fee everyone else gets - starts at 25%, never 40% - we don’t up-charge union members or claim a "union special" rate that’s actually the same as our standard fee.
Hurt on the job? Off the job?
