I sustained a serious injury on-the-job and soon after requesting additional workers compensation I was fired from where I’d worked for years. I didn’t know where to turn until a friend suggested I call Dan Matrafajlo. Thanks Dan, for making sure I was taken care of financially and my former employer got what he deserved. John R.
