As a section of workers’ compensation for coal miners, the federal black lung program is specifically designed to benefit coal miners who are disabled, or who have died because of black lung contracted during employment. Knowing this, there are many people eligible to receive these benefits, but are either unaware or without proper legal counsel to navigate the process. If you are in need of legal advice, representation, or any other type of legal support when it comes to black lung and other respiratory illnesses, call Todd Houck and his team today!
