The College of Workers’ Compensation Lawyers is an organization that honors workers’ compensation plaintiff’s attorneys, defense attorneys, professors, and judges nationwide. Our Fellows are recognized as distinguished members of the workers’ compensation legal community.

The welfare of human beings, the success of business, and the pocketbooks of consumers are affected daily by it.

Judge E.R. Mills, Singletary v. Mangham Construction, 418 So.2d 1138 (Fla. 1st DCA, 1982)
