What Wilmington Clients Say
Real results for real people
The team at Oxner + Permar helped me get the workers' comp benefits I deserved after my injury. They were professional, responsive, and fought hard for me.
After my workplace accident, I didn't know where to turn. Oxner + Permar took care of everything and got me a great settlement. Highly recommend!
I was denied workers' comp at first, but Oxner + Permar appealed and won my case. They truly care about their clients and know the law inside and out.
