Law Office of Charles L. Powell PLLC

Chip is the best of the bests, so sad that he is retiring.

Well, I have to give a lot of credit to attorney Charles L Powell, PLLC. even though my head was not on straight because of a concussion, what I was going through he took the time to show me what is available, and what is not available in the Workmen’s Compensation program. He literally wrote the book on it. He helped us to find a direction to go get all the hospital visits. Doctors visits in line so that I could get well and move forward with the injuries that I sustained. He was able to have Justin Saluca attorney-at-law work with me to the very end. Don’t take Workmen’s Compensation injuries for granted get the help of an attorney and you’ll never be sorry especially if you use these two attorneys.

Words can not describe the gratitude, appreciation & thank you to this law office specifically Charles and Justin who went above and beyond on my case. I knew from the start they were blessings sent from God. I was always treated like I mattered, they listened and answered when I just needed to talk. They kept me encouraged, positive and informed the entire time. If your ever in need of professional, knowledgeable, and all around great lawyers I with my whole heart recommend this law firm!

Charles L. Powell in my findings is a compassionate person and takes good care of his clients. He and Justin put a lot of work into my case I am not only pleased with what they achieved, but also to know them and for their consoling during my case. I would proudly recommend them. Very Thankful Harold + Grace Jones

If you are reading this post and are looking for representation in any type of Workmen's Compensation case please let me say that #1 Workplace injuries can and do happen. Many times bringing life changing issues that can be physically and mentally challenging not to mention affecting your ability to provide financially for you and your family. In a time like this you may find yourself at a loss of how to proceed and move on and regain your independence and ability to be self- sufficient. Possibly due to no fault of your own. Many people define their identity and self worth through their ability to excell at their job or trade whether they realize it or not. All of a sudden this ability is taken away, sometimes permanently, sometime not. This happened to me and life as you know it is forever changed. I was blessed to be referred to the Law offices of Attorney Charles Powell. Attorney"Chip" conferred with me in confidence and immediately started the arduous work of the filing and forms(Of which there are many) to protect my financial well-being and self worth through the process preventing me from the pitfalls and mistakes I'm sure I would have encountered. If you find you need a trusted ally and guide to represent you and your loss (or threat of loss) Do not hesitate to call Chip. He is a man of honor and will bring you the best possible results. Sincerely Mark Laughlin..

Charles (Chip) was excellent. From the first phone call to the last, he was always responsive and attune to what was happening in my case; from beginning to the end. I was very lucky to find him!!!! Always returned messages or calls in a timely manner whether it be in the evening or on the weekend and he was very empathetic when I was, at times, very frustrated. I wouldn't hesitate to call Chip again if I ever needed help in VT. Highly recommended!!!!! Thanks CHIP!!!!

We highly recommend Charles (Chip) Powell to anyone who is looking for a Workers Compensation Attorney to represent them. From the moment I first spoke with Chip on the phone, his calm demeanor and reassuring words immediately put me at ease. He listened patiently while I rambled “on and on” about all of the difficulties that Workers Comp had put my husband and I through over the last 21/2 years.Chip fought hard to get the necessary treatment for my husbands work-related injury that Workers Comp refused to pay for.He contacted his providing physician on several occasions to get further documentation from him to clarify a disputed “Workers Compensation hired physicians” opinion as to the extent of his work-related injury. Thanks to Chips hard work and determination we were able to reach a settlement with Workers Comp and we no longer have to deal with them, EVER! Contacting Chip Powell was the best thing we ever did! He is so kind and he really cares about the people he represents! To anyone reading this that is looking for a honest, kind and compassionate Attorney, Please give Chip Powell a call! You will be so happy that you did Claudia and Gary Andrews

No better attorney to guide one through the thorny jungle of workers compensation law. Chip, works hard for his clients while staying focused on their specific needs. In the two years he advocated for me, he never forgot to communicate in clear terms and be there when I had questions. Chip works with experience, expertise, energy and empathy. You may start as a client, but you will end up a friend.

I count my lucky stars to have found Chip Powell on line. I felt certain after we spoke on the phone, that he was someone who could help me with my work injury if it came to that. After meeting him for the first time, I felt like my 'case' was in the right hands. His listening skills are superior. His words of counsel to remember still resonant after hearing them being reinforced and proven over two years time. Seeing him work during the day of my mediation was an exceptional thing to behold. It was clear he had his area well delineated, and would move things along solidly. His expertise in his profession is laudable. Yes, I tell everyone I have chosen to share this very private story with the same thing. To hear things had been signed, sealed, delivered AND approved, with a wonderful outcome, was both a blessing and a blessed relief. Chip's optimism, realism, kindness and faith in the process was strong throughout. My life really was in the right hands. How could I thank him for that? Recommending him without a moments hesitation if you've been injured at work is perhaps one way. > Grateful Client > >

A Google search for a lawyer turned out to be the best thing to happen to me in 2020. These guys worked hard for me and I couldn't thank them enough. Personable people with the knowledge and guidance I needed.

I couldn't have asked for better. My Mom went through a Workers' Comp case once and it was a nightmare for her, so I know how bad it could have gone if I chose the wrong Lawyer. I NEVER had to deal with a minute of that with Chip. Every hoop, obstacle, foot drag and obfuscation thrown up by the opposition was quickly mowed down by Chip. It was a VERY nice feeling to not feel a single moments concern whenever the opposition would try some trick or maneuver. It didn't matter, I KNEW Chip would slap it down and it would just be another failed attempt by them in the rear view mirror. They dragged out my case for 6 years. I was paid every week while it happened and I received a VERY nice settlement. Go with Chip, trust me, you're gonna win.

If you are looking for a lawyer to represent you in a workman's comp case, you've found the perfect person in Charles (Chip) Powell. He is honest, sincere & tenacious . He handles things calmly taking great lengths to explain them. But, don't let his calm, polite demeanor deter you from hiring him. He will fight fiercely for your rights and your settlement. It's a nerve-wracking experience and you want somebody who will always be by your side and knows the law inside and out. He handled all the communication with w/c alleviating all that stress from me, fought for me when they continually threatened to stop benefits, and won EVERY TIME. He knows the law and he won't give in to them over the smallest thing. He fights for you and sees you receive the best care. Care that YOU DESERVE AND ARE LEGALLY allowed. I have ZERO complaints with him. He is an amazing human being and a highly successful lawyer. I'm a better person for knowing him, for helping me through this process and for the outcome he achieved. It never seems fair when you're left with a permanent injury, but he helps both by educating you, by emotionally supporting/encouraging you and lastly, by financially through his fierce negotiations. You can't go wrong by hiring him.

I highly recommend Attorney Charles “Chip” Powell based on his expertise in handling workers’ compensation cases. I had a high level of anxiety about the process and needing a lawyer but after the very first meeting with Chip I felt a great deal of relief. Chip took a great deal of time getting to know the circumstances of my injury and how it has affected my life. His years of experience and knowledge of the workers’ compensation laws were extremely helpful; from the very first visit I knew that he was the one person that could help me through this process. Chip has an impeccable attention to detail and his retention of even the littlest details helped. To Chip, I wasn’t just a case; he really took the time to understand how my injury changed my life, all aspects of it. It was such a stress relief to have representation throughout the entire process. Chip has an established practice and as such he has many resources lined up to help throughout the process. He arranged to have additional medical exams and specialists visits for documentation that were unbiased. He fought to get the treatment and medications that I needed, which workers’ compensation had stop paying for. Throughout the process Chip always sent me updates or called to let me know how things were progressing. If I didn’t understand he always took the time to answer my question in a way that I would comprehend it (minus the legal speak). I couldn’t have done this without hiring Chip; if you have a work related injury I would call him as soon as possible. ~ Laura Samson

After the experience my Husband went through with his company when trying to file for workers comp injury's I have to say that Chip was by for the most amazing and dedicated attorney!! I would tell anyone and everyone to hire him because he puts his clients first! He works extremely hard to help make sure his clients get what they deserve.

I must say Chip is an excellent lawyer that will pursue justice for those that are injured and need help. I do thank God for him for doing this task for me and my family .He is a very knowledgeable and good hearted man that has understanding of different circumstances in unique situations that I feel others may not have been able to quite relate to and his patience throughout this entire legal process was done with care and compassion. Thank you Chip for all you have done for me and may God bless you for what you have done for us.
