Linnette Flannigan

A knowledgeable and effective advocate for our business

Our company, a mid-sized manufacturer in Phoenix, recently faced a complex workers' compensation claim involving a disputed injury and significant potential liability. We engaged Linnette Flannigan at Welker & Pauole after a colleague recommended her, noting her specific recognition in employer-side workers' compensation law. From our first consultation, her 26 years of experience were evident. She didn't just recite legal principles; she provided a clear, strategic roadmap tailored to Arizona's specific statutes and the nuances of our industry. Her deep knowledge, undoubtedly honed since her graduation from ASU's law program in 1999, allowed her to anticipate the opposing counsel's arguments and prepare countermeasures that felt both thorough and pragmatic. The case settled favorably for us, avoiding litigation and minimizing disruption. While the outcome was excellent, there were a few instances where communication lagged, perhaps due to her caseload, requiring a follow-up call from our HR director. Overall, Linnette is a formidable attorney in her field. Her recognition by Best Lawyers is well-deserved, and we would confidently work with her again for any employment-related legal matters. She protects her clients' interests with a steady, experienced hand.
