Huntsville, Alabama Workers' Compensation Attorneys
Work-Related Injuries | Wrongful Discharge

The Huntsville, Alabama law firm of Wolfe, Jones, Wolfe, Hancock & Daniel, LLC represents employees in filing claims for job-related accidents and injuries suffered in the performance of their work duties, including litigation against third parties and actions against employers for wrongful termination in retaliation for workers' compensation claims.

R. Wayne Wolfe  represents injured workers in Huntsville, Decatur, Madison County, Morgan County, Marshall, Jackson County and across north Alabama in workers' compensation claims and other work-related injury litigation. Mr. Wolfe is past president of the Workers' Compensation Section of the Alabama Bar Association.

We have extensive trial experience and have prevailed in many favorable settlements, verdicts and appellate decisions. In fact, Mr. Wolfe successfully appealed to the Alabama Supreme Court on behalf of a punch press operator (Michael Harris v. Gill) whose fingers were severed when a safety guard was bypassed. The case helped to define co-worker liability in Alabama.

• burns
• paralysis
• back or neck injury

Wrongful Discharge
Wolfe, Jones, Wolfe, Hancock & Daniel, LLC has litigated a large number of cases involving retaliatory discharge - the firing of an employee for making a worker's compensation claim against his or her employer - including the successful appeal to the Alabama Supreme Court on behalf of a government worker fired the day after his worker's comp claim was settled (Francis Macon v. Huntsville Utilities). Mr. Wolfe convinced the high court that the plaintiff was entitled to damages beyond the $100,000 cap for government employees.

Construction Site Accidents
Wolfe, Jones, Wolfe, Hancock & Daniel, LLC represents workers and individuals who are injured on construction sites because of the fault of another individual or company such as failure to provide fall protection, safety guards on machinery, failure to work of hazardous condition and failure to provide a safe place to work.
