Worker's Compensation & Employment Law
Workers’ compensation is the sole remedy, absent a few very limited exceptions, for an employee injured on the job. Employees may be entitled to recover income lost from work days missed while healing, resulting permanent disability payments, and medical expenses. In Utah, workers compensation coverage is provided by private insurers that generally try to limit the expense of claims. For that reason, the assistance of an experienced attorney can be crucial to obtaining the benefits deserved.

Aside from workers' compensation, other areas of employment law in which Byington and Goble can assist include discrimination and reasonable accommodation claims, whistle blower claims, wrongful terminations, wage claims, and administrative claims related to the discipline of government employees.
