About
Bryan J. Paradise is an attorney with Hickey & Turim, S.C. in Milwaukee whose practice focuses on workers’ compensation. Paradise represents injured workers, including people whose claims or benefits have been denied. Earlier in his career, he spent substantial time defending employers and insurance carriers in workers’ compensation matters. That experience gives him perspective on how claims are evaluated, contested, negotiated, and prepared for formal proceedings.
Paradise earned both his bachelor’s degree and law degree from the University of Wisconsin. His legal education provided the foundation for a practice involving statutory benefits, medical and employment records, administrative procedure, and litigation strategy. He is licensed in Wisconsin and Minnesota and is admitted before the Eastern and Western Districts of Wisconsin and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, reflecting a broad litigation and appellate background.
Paradise now uses his defense-side experience to represent injured employees seeking workers’ compensation benefits and challenging denied claims. He understands the issues employers and insurers examine when assessing liability and benefits, which informs his preparation of evidence and arguments for workers. His practice may involve disputed medical questions, benefit eligibility, negotiations, hearings, and appeals, with a focus on helping clients understand the process and present a well-supported claim.
Bryan J. Paradise brings experience from both sides of workers’ compensation disputes to his representation of injured workers. His prior work for employers and insurers provides insight into defense strategies and claim evaluation, while his current practice focuses on protecting employee rights and pursuing available benefits. Paradise helps clients navigate procedural requirements, organize supporting evidence, and respond to denials or disputes with practical advocacy grounded in years of workers’ compensation experience.
