Phillip Shell

I have been fighting for Utah injured workers and their families to obtain worker's compensation and Social Security disability benefits for 40 years. I've handled many hundreds of cases and gotten millions of dollars in benefits for my clients.

I know the judges. I know the opposing attorneys. And I know the system. I can usually tell you up-front whether or not you have a good case and what you can hope to recover. Very competitive contingent fees. No money up-front and no fee until your case is resolved.

Some cases can be settled, some must be fought in court, but I will do what it takes to get the best recovery possible for you.

• All types of work injuries. Get permanent total disability (PTD) benefits
• Work related Occupational Diseases - if the job made you ill, call us.

• Free Consultation
  Regardless of the case, no fee for the initial consultation. You should be able to discuss your case and your options without getting billed for that information. If we can help you, we will work out a fair and reasonable fee agreement. Disability cases are always contingent fee, and for less than many attorneys now charge. I work for you.
• Contingent Fees
  No money up front. Very competitive contingent fees for worker's comp cases. Flat fee bankruptcy.
