Canton Workers' Compensation & Personal Injury Lawyer
Are You Seeking a Fair Claim Settlement for Your Injury?
All it takes is a moment for a person's life to be drastically changed. A wrong turn while a person is driving, a slip and fall at work or a heavy item falling off a shelf at the store—all of these events happen in the span of a few seconds, yet they can potentially lead to very serious injuries that require weeks, months or even years of medical treatment. When individuals receive work-related injuries, they can sometimes be so physically impaired that they must find completely different lines of work. It is important to understand which types of financial compensation you are entitled to, whether that is workers' compensation benefits or a personal injury settlement. Injury victims sometimes hit roadblocks when trying to obtain this compensation, whether that is due to an employer denying the validity of a workers' comp claim or an insurance company offering a settlement that is just too low to cover the costs of an injury.

About Canton, Georgia
Canton is a city in northwest Georgia that has 23,380 residents, according to 2011 census estimates. The city is the county seat of Cherokee County, an area that was once the heartland of the Cherokee Nation. The city was incorporated in 1832, originally founded by individuals who hoped to make the area a major center for silk production. (The city was named after a Chinese capital for silk production.) While Canton did not become known for its silk, it did become known worldwide for its "Canton Denim," a product that came from Canton Cotton Mills, which eventually closed. In recent years, the city has been experiencing a good amount of population growth, encouraging further city development.

The average income per person (or the per capita income) is $21,797, and 19.2% of the city's residents live below the poverty level.

I was injured in the apocalypse snow storm of Atlanta in 2014, I never intended or thought I would need an attorney to assist me with all the ongoing paperwork, needed to get me through this long and draining process. In the process I was not only drained of going to therapy 5 days a week 3 hours a day, groggy from pain pills, and really no in my right mind to make good decisions, I wanted this over and done with, but when I felt being pushed into the wrong direction by insurance company, I had no choice but to start my search I logged in on a Saturday and begin emailing attorneys to see if anyone could help me. On a Sunday Mr. Kaleita called we discussed the case not even being a client yet it was an immediate trust and connection, he understood my frustration and since that day I felt he has been a guardian angel to help me in every step of the way. Even when I thought we were completed, he was such a thorough person, he not only checked once but twice and always found something overall I feel he has become my greatest attorney yet, as well as a mutual friend..the most humble person I have met in this profession and cares about the overall outcome. I would recommend him to anyone. No matter what matter you may have he has a resource in the legal field to help you get your answers. Very knowledgeable in his field- Blanca
