The
best kept secret in Wisconsin is that worker's compensation covers hearing loss.
In 2002, Johnson Law Offices formed Sound Advisors. Its educational mission
is focused on occupational deafness and worker's compensation.
Sound Advisor's President is Victoria
Johnson. Ms. Johnson has been working since 1983 to assist hearing impaired
workers gain compensation for their noise induced hearing loss. Together with
Mary Jo Helker, they manage Sound Advisors.
Sound Advisor's Senior Vice President
is Mary Jo Helker. Ms. Helker is an engineer with more than 15 years of hands
on experience, most recently serving as Corporate Safety Director for Sub
Zero Freezer Company in its national headquarters in Madison.

Johnson Law Offices has designed
a legal services program to minimize inconvenience. Clients are kept informed
by follow-up calls, they receive copies of necessary correspondence sent to
and from doctors, providers, the insurance company and the state. This is a fairly quick and painless
process for the claimant and assisting professionals. Johnson Law Offices
does all the paperwork, coordination and negotiation (of course, working closely
with the client who makes the final decisions on settlement or hearing). Fees
and costs to the client are contingent upon recovery...no recovery/no fees
or costs.

Always
feel free to ask Johnson Law Offices/Sound Advisors about the system, the law

hearing impaired retirees and their families, especially spouses, and their
