We work with federal employees who have suffered injuries or perform physically demanding jobs, helping them secure the compensation they deserve.
Whether you’ve already filed a claim and experienced difficulty, or whether you’ve never filed a claim before, call our office to determine whether you may be eligible for benefits.
The United States Government currently has more than 400 departments, agencies, and sub-agencies. We look forward to serving employees in any branch of the federal government, in all 50 states and in Washington, D.C.
Below are examples of agencies that we’ve served previously
To successfully obtain benefits under FECA, a claimant has the burden to prove 5 basic elements:
Time
A claim for compensation for disability or death must be filed within three years after the date of injury (if a CA-1 Claim for Traumatic Injury) or the date of last exposure (if a CA-2 Claim for Occupational Injury).
Civil Employee
The claimant must be a civilian employee of the federal government.
Fact of Injury
Factual component: The claimant must establish that he/she actually experienced the accident, untoward event, or employment factor which is alleged to have occurred.
Medical component: The claimant’s medical evidence must establish a medical condition diagnosed in connection with the accident, incident, or exposure.
Performance of Duty
The claimant must establish that they were injured “in the course of employment,” which pertains to the work setting, locale, time, and circumstances.
The claimant must also establish that the injury “arose out of the employment,” meaning that the employee sustained an injury during the performance of day-to-day regular duties, specially assigned duties, or a requirement imposed by the employment.
Causal Relationship
The claimant’s medical evidence must establish that there is a causal between the work-related exposure/injury and diagnosed medical condition.
Whether you’ve already filed a claim and experienced difficulty, or whether you’ve never filed a claim before, call our office to determine whether you may be eligible for benefits.

Mr. Blowers and the entire IFW Law Group staff are THE EXPERTS in this field. No one is more knowledgeable, professional, and passionate than IFW. After 37 years in law enforcement, and 30 as a Federal Agent, the job had taken a toll on my body. I’ve had hip, knee, and shoulder replacements. IFW Law Group has completely altered and enhanced my ability to enjoy my retirement to its fullest. I can’t possibly thank or praise IFW enough for what they have done for me.
Dear Erik and the IFW Group, I am writing to express my sincere thanks for the most professional representation over the years. You have stuck with me through the years in my dealing with this stressful case. . . you remained trusting, reassuring me that you would handle the situation in which you always have. I would be truly lost without you and your team. Thank you again Erik for you going above and beyond! I am extremely grateful that you bear with me through everything!!!
I am incredibly honored and grateful for everything Erik Blowers and his team from IFW Law Firm) has done for me. When others turned me away and I had lost hope in the justice system Erik Blowers stepped in with unwavering support and made what seemed impossible a reality. His dedication, knowledge, commitment, skills and caring nature for me and my family means more than words can express. He went above and beyond to help me with my case and brought justice for me.
Again thanks to you, life is great because I have been able to maintain my lifestyle and I can provide for and support my family financially. I am back down in STX and without you showing the morons at OWCP the error of their ways, keeping this place would have been impossible. Thanks again for EVERYTHING!!!
As an Injured Federal Employee four years ago all I knew was that I needed an Attorney and how critical it was that I made the right decision. I learned that Erik Blowers had an excellent reputation as a knowledgeable, tenacious and hard working Attorney who “Gives His All” for his clients. I have personally watched him bring a high level of expertise, energy and diligence while representing me. Erik is always very well prepared and he will achieve the legal results that you are entitled to just as he has for me. He has an amazing ability to connect with people to make them feel comfortable through an often challenging process. I very highly recommend him.
I have been a client of Injured Federal Workers law group for around five years. They have never failed me. They have always answered any questions that I have or given me a direction that would help. I have had several workers compensation cases and through it all I know they have my back. They have always been a pleasure to work with and I know that I can depend on them for anything that comes up.
