A Career Shaped by Personal Injury and Workers’ Compensation Cases
Over the course of his career, attorney Howard B. Zavodnick has handled thousands of car accident and workers’ compensation cases. His practice focuses on helping injured people pursue compensation for the losses associated with workplace injuries and accidents caused by negligence.
Personal injury cases can involve medical expenses, lost earnings, ongoing treatment, and changes to a person’s daily life.

Each type of claim raises different questions about the circumstances of an injury, the available evidence, and the compensation that may apply.
