Attorney Tim Hamill knows the Labor & Industries workers' compensation system inside and out
If you’re injured on the job, you need an experienced attorney. Workers’ Comp is a complex area of the law, with its own rules, procedures, courts and judges.
I’m Tim Hamill of Bothwell and Hamill.
For almost 10 years, I was an assistant attorney general representing Labor & Industries. But now I fight for injured workers. Let me help you.
If you experienced a sudden injury at work, it may be obvious that you should receive workers’ compensation benefits. Still, you might wonder if the circumstances of your injury qualify.
Or maybe you gradually developed a health condition because of repetitive movements in your job or exposure to hazardous chemicals. It can be harder to pinpoint exactly when the problem started.
This much is certain: When you know you’re struggling with your health because of something that happened at work, that’s when you know you should get workers’ comp benefits.
You worked hard. You showed dedication. When you can’t work because you were hurt on the job, you shouldn’t be left with nothing.
Workers’ comp benefits, which in Washington are run by the State Department of Labor & Industries, can cover the medical bills related to your workplace ailment.
Workers’ comp can also pay you a large portion of the lost wages you’re missing while you can’t work.
But workers’ comp sometimes works against you. You need help from someone who knows their way around the system.
If you can’t work, let us go to work to get you benefits.
This is a difficult moment in your life. It’s not the time to take any chances.
Not only can you get a lawyer to help you win workers’ comp benefits — you can get a lawyer who used to represent L&I.
Tim Hamill spent almost 10 years as an assistant attorney general for the state, representing L&I at every level of the court system.
Since then, he’s spent more than 10 years fighting to win benefits for workers like you.
He knows what you’re up against with L&I.
And now his focus is helping people win benefits in Yakima, Kennewick, Sunnyside, Richland, Pasco, Wenatchee and Walla Walla.
Workers’ comp is a special kind of law, with its own laws, doctors, courts and judges.
Tim knows this area of law inside and out.

Tim Hamill doesn’t believe in working that way. This is what you get when you have him as your lawyer:
With workers’ comp, sometimes your case is about more than whether you’re getting benefits or not. It’s about getting the maximum benefits.
A claims manager might make a mistake calculating how much money you should get in time-loss payments. Or L&I might cut off your benefits too soon.
Tim can help you maintain benefits for longer.
He can explain to you — and to L&I — what medical services you should be receiving for free and how much you should be getting in lost wages.
When you’ve been hurt at work, don’t hesitate. Start your claim as soon as you can.
