Labor and employment firm adds lawyer with decades of experience representing injured workers
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Labor, employment, workers' compensation and family law firm Willig, Williams & Davidson is pleased to announce that attorney Eric S. Borjeson has joined the firm's workers' compensation practice group.
Certified as an expert in workers' compensation by the Pennsylvania Bar Association, Borjeson understands the intricate nuances of Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation law. He has focused his practice on workers' compensation law for more than 30 years, giving his injured clients the advantage of deep knowledge of the state system and its decision makers.
"Eric has spent his career fighting for injured workers to receive the benefits they deserve, and we are thrilled that he is bringing to our team his insight into workers' compensation law," said Managing Partner Deborah R. Willig. "We look forward to working with him to ensure our clients and their families are made whole."
Borjeson understands the motivations and strategies employed by Pennsylvania employers and their insurance companies, after having begun his career on the employer side of the system. He soon shifted to the claimants' side of the process, and this experience on both sides of workers' compensation matters has equipped him to anticipate opposing counsel's tactics. He tackles each matter with tenacity and insider intuition.
"Workers have earned the compensation and benefits they need to take care of themselves and their families, and I am proud to utilize my decades of experience to help clients continue on with their lives after a work injury," said Borjeson. "Willig, Williams & Davidson has a stellar legacy of standing by working people, and I am honored to join their dedicated team in fighting for what they deserve."
Borjeson deftly guides clients through the Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation System and has successfully litigated cases before the PWC Appeal Board and the Commonwealth Court. He represents injured workers from a variety of occupations, including healthcare workers, teachers, construction workers, police officers, and firemen. He has assisted clients with a wide variety of injuries, including physical and mental conditions and catastrophic injuries such as brain damage, amputations, complex regional pain syndrome, and paralysis.
Some of Borjeson's career highlights include representing a claimant who was threatened at work because of his sexual orientation; representing a police officer who was being severely harassed by fellow officers; and representing claimants with post-traumatic stress disorder and other difficult-to-diagnose traumas. He received his J.D. from Villanova University School of Law and a bachelor's degree in political science from Gettysburg College. He lives in Berwyn, Pennsylvania.
