What Separates Robinson Law LLC from Other Allentown Workers’ Comp Firms
Paula worked on both sides of workers’ compensation cases earlier in her career, representing employers and insurance companies before dedicating her practice entirely to injured workers. That background isn’t a footnote. It means she knows how insurers build their defense strategies, which arguments they rely on, and where those arguments can have weaknesses. She uses that knowledge on your behalf when she negotiates a settlement or walks into a hearing.
Workers’ compensation is the only area of law Robinson Law LLC handles. Paula doesn’t divide her attention across personal injury, family law, or criminal defense. Every insight she brings to your Lehigh County claim comes from a career spent entirely inside this one area of Pennsylvania law.
The credentials back this up.
Paula holds a 10/10 Avvo score and has earned the Avvo Clients’ Choice Award three consecutive years, 2023, 2024, and 2025, with more than 200 reviews on Avvo. Robinson Law LLC is also recognized by Super Lawyers and Expertise and maintains BBB accreditation.
Here’s what that means in practice for your Allentown workers' compensation claim:
- Direct attorney access: Paula answers her own phone. You reach her, not a case manager, when you have questions.
- Honest assessments: She tells you where your case stands, not what you want to hear.
- Full lifecycle handling: From the initial filing through settlement negotiations, hearings, and appeals for denied claims.
- Proven results: Robinson Law LLC has recovered millions of dollars for clients since opening in 2011.
- Free consultation: Paula reviews your case before you make any decisions about moving forward.
The moments after a workplace injury are chaotic. Your first responsibility is to get medical help. Your second step is to report the injury to your employer. Make this report in writing if you can. An email or a text message works. This creates a clear record of when your employment-related injury happened. A delay in reporting can give the insurance company a reason to question your claim.
Paula can advise you on how to properly document everything from day one. Under the Pennsylvania Workers’ Compensation Act, injuries must be reported to your employer within 120 days, but reporting immediately is far safer. Proper reporting can be the difference between a recognized claim and a denied one. She helps you build your case correctly from the very start.
Paula Robinson’s Approach to Disfigurement Claims for Allentown, PA, Workers
A serious burn or a deep scar from a work accident is more than just a surface wound. It’s a permanent change to your appearance. In Pennsylvania, you may be entitled to specific benefits for disfigurement injuries to the head, face, or neck. Under the Pennsylvania Workers’ Compensation Act, disfigurement benefits apply to these areas of the body and exist completely separate from your wage loss payments.
Paula Robinson pursues these specific disfigurement claims for her Allentown, PA, clients. She works with you to document the injury properly, often with photographs, to show the full extent of the permanent scarring, and evaluates the value of these claims, which may provide a lump-sum payment to account for the permanent damages you’ve suffered.
Fighting for Your Future After a Back or Spinal Cord Injury in Allentown, PA
An injury to your back or spinal cord can alter your life. These injuries often mean chronic pain, long recovery times, and sometimes the inability to return to your old job. The insurance company might try to downplay the long-term impact on your employment or push you back to work before you’re ready.
Paula focuses on showing the full scope of your back or spinal cord injury. She fights to get the medical evidence needed to prove the severity of your condition. This can include establishing a “loss of use” of parts of your body, which may result in significant benefits. She works to secure the medical care and wage loss benefits you need for as long as your injury affects you.
