A Client-First Philosophy

With over 40 years of experience, James Monast understands that a work injury knocks you down not just physically, but financially and emotionally. The firm's goal is to 'rewrite the playbook' in your favor, countering the tactics often used by self-insured employers and the BWC to minimize payouts.
