Suffering a severe injury in an unexpected collision or sustaining harm on the job can upend your livelihood and destabilize your family finances. Thompson and Thomas represents injured workers, accident victims, and individuals confronting disability across West Palm Beach, Lake Worth, Port St. Lucie, and throughout Palm Beach County. Unlike billboard firms that treat clients as file numbers, partners Philip Thompson and Charles Thomas handle every matter with hands-on dedication. Whether you need to hire an attorney after a devastating crash or seek benefits for an occupational injury, the firm prepares every claim with trial rigor.

The firm operates predominantly through referrals, relying on substantive results rather than aggressive marketing.

Representation for Motor Vehicle Collisions and Serious Injuries

• Car accident litigation involving reckless driving, speeding, intersection crashes, and drunk drivers.
• Commercial truck accident claims involving federal safety noncompliance and carrier negligence.
• Motorcycle accident injuries requiring strategic handling against biased insurance adjusters.
• Pedestrian injury and bicycle collision cases where careless motorists failed to yield.
• Premises liability claims, including slip and fall injury incidents, negligent security, and dangerous conditions.
• Defective product injury claims and severe dog bite injury lawsuits.

If you or a family member suffered catastrophic harm and need a lawyer immediately, consulting an experienced accident and injury lawyer ensures essential evidence and witness statements are secured without delay.

Florida Workers' Compensation and Workplace Injury Claims

Florida employees injured during the scope of their employment have statutory rights to medical treatment and wage replacement benefits. However, employers and workers' compensation carriers regularly attempt to avoid liability, dispute work injuries, or prematurely terminate medical care. Philip Thompson, a seasoned trial lawyer and Florida Supreme Court certified circuit civil mediator, represents injured workers before judges of compensation claims across South Florida. The firm ensures injured employees obtain prompt authorized medical treatment, temporary total disability compensation, and lump-sum settlement resolutions.

Social Security Disability and Employment Law

Navigating the federal Social Security Administration disability process is notoriously daunting, with initial applications routinely denied. Thompson and Thomas guides disabled individuals through administrative hearings, establishing total disability through rigorous medical documentation. In addition, the firm defends workers facing unlawful workplace discrimination, wage violations, and civil rights deprivations, including protecting the constitutional rights of incarcerated individuals against medical neglect and abuse.

Why Clients Choose Thompson and Thomas
