Joe Hughes

Joe Hughes 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 Minnesota. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Joe Hughes handles all types of workers' compensation cases in Minnesota, including Transportation Accidents, Workers Compensation, Third Party Claims, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.

In Minnesota, 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 Joe immediately after any workplace injury.

Yes — claim denials are one of Joe Hughes's specialties. Insurance companies routinely deny valid claims hoping workers won't fight back. With 12 years of experience in Minnesota workers' comp law, Joe knows exactly how to appeal denials and fight for the benefits you're entitled to.

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