Franklin Worker's Compensation Law Firm
Overview
My name is Jim White. I grew up in a working class, blue collar neighborhood in Cranston RI. One of five children my parents taught me the value of hard work, education and the need to help those less fortunate. While attending BU I worked one, and sometimes two jobs. I graduated BU in 1982 with a degree in Business. I continued at BU School of Law graduating with a JD degree in 1985.
Upon graduation I began working for a small plaintiffs' PI firm which also specialized in workers compensation...

Upon graduation I began working for a small plaintiffs' PI firm which also specialized in workers compensation. From 1987 until 1992 I worked as ‘Inhouse Counsel' defending insurance companies and their insureds. Defending insurance companies was an invaluable experience. It gave me the opportunity to witness first hand how insurers evaluate and defend claims. I tried numerous motor vehicle accident and personal injury cases in District Court; Superior Court and Federal Court, 1st Circuit.
I left the insurance company because I witnessed first hand how the unrepresented, or the poorly represented injured people failed to be fairly compensated for their injuries. I have since dedicated myself to counseling people who have been injured at work, injured due to the fault of someone else, and claims for Social Security Disability.
If you've been injured at work or suffered a personal injury due to someone else's negligence you need the advice of an honest, compassionate advocate. Call me. The initial consultation is free and I offer a No Fee Guarantee. If I don't get you a recovery, you don't pay.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
