Devoted to Representing Victims of Workplace Injuries.

Theis Law Offices – Nebraska Workers’ Compensation Attorney

My practice is devoted to representing victims of workplace injuries. Work-related injuries happen. Injuries at work aren’t planned, but when they happen, what do you do? Filing a claim on your own can prove difficult, or you could get pushback from the insurance company. That’s where I come in.

My law firm specializes in workers’ compensation. My narrow scope of focus and smaller case volume allow me to provide high-quality, personalized legal services to each one of my clients.

For over twenty-seven years, I’ve gone head-to-head with claims adjusters and lawyers at many of Nebraska’s largest employers. I have obtained millions of dollars in benefits from court victories and settlements. I won’t stop fighting until you receive the benefits you are entitled to under Nebraska law.

Successfully Fighting for Injured Workers

I’ve spent over two decades helping Nebraskans and truck drivers from across the country receive the compensation they deserve. After you experience a work-related injury, the employer’s insurance company goes right to work to limit their own damages. When filing for workers’ compensation in Nebraska, I will be the expert on your side. I will stand up for you and prevent insurance companies from neglecting the medical care and financial compensation you are rightfully owed.

“I hired Colin to help me when I was hit by another vehicle while I was driving a truck for Werner. I was injured badly, requiring multiple surgeries. Colin handled my workers’ compensation case, and I also had a personal injury case against the other driver, which ultimately ended up as a lawsuit in federal court.

He was with me throughout the entire process, and even though I lived in Florida, I always felt like he was there for me whenever I needed anything.

He will fight hard for you.”
