About Edelman & Thompson
Under Missouri law, the employer and its insurance carrier are obligated to pay for the employee’s medical treatment for an injury which occurs on the job. However, the employee is required to treat with the physicians selected and authorized by the employer and its insurer. Any bills which the employee incurs on their own will be their responsibility to pay. Sometimes injured workers believe that they can pursue treatment through their health insurance. Unfortunately, virtually every health insurance policy excludes work injuries from their coverage. As a result, an employee who believes that their health insurance company will pay bills related to a work injury will instead have to pay the bills themselves out of their own pocket.

From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and truly fought for the best possible outcome. The insurance company’s original settlement offer was extremely low, but Ryan was able to get us around six or seven times more than what they first offered. He made the process much easier to unde

Ryan Weltz did a great job handling my workers’ comp case. He kept me updated throughout the process, gave solid advice, and was always very quick to respond whenever I had questions. He made the whole process a lot less stressful and ultimately got me a settlement that was about 3 times higher than the insurance company’s original offer.

I was treated like a person, not a paycheck. They were truly co
