Provost Umphrey: A Nationally Recognized Leader In Labor Law
For nearly five decades, the Provost Umphrey Law Firm has demonstrated its commitment to protecting and championing the rights of labor union workers throughout the United States. From its home office in Beaumont, Texas and satellite offices in Houston and Nashville, the legal team at Provost Umphrey has consistently fought and won the good fights on behalf of labor union workers accidentally injured or killed on the job.
Being grievously injured or killed in an accident is a financial life changer for union workers and their families. Besides the obvious costs of emergency medical care, surgery, rehabilitation and other long-term costs, there is also potential lost income and benefits at stake. In some instances, negligence in workplace health and safety standards may be in play that could result in substantial punitive damages. For an injured worker or the grieving family of a fatally injured worker, the legal details required to insure that just compensation is received can be overwhelming.
