Benjamin Chavez

Benjamin Chavez works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. If your case is successful, the attorney's fee is a percentage of your settlement or award — typically 15–25% in Louisiana. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Benjamin Chavez handles all types of workers' compensation cases in Louisiana, including Denied Claims, Slip and Fall, Repetitive Stress, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.

In Louisiana, you generally must report your injury to your employer within 30 days and file a formal claim within 1–2 years of the injury date. These deadlines are strict — missing them can cost you your benefits. Contact Benjamin immediately after any workplace injury.

Yes — claim denials are one of Benjamin Chavez's specialties. Insurance companies routinely deny valid claims hoping workers won't fight back. With 30 years of experience in Louisiana workers' comp law, Benjamin knows exactly how to appeal denials and fight for the benefits you're entitled to.

Benjamin Chavez primarily serves clients in Slidell and the surrounding Louisiana area, but handles cases throughout the state. If you're in Louisiana and were injured at work, contact Benjamin's office for a free consultation regardless of your location.
