Turim earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a law degree from the Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago-Kent College of Law. His education prepared him for a legal career focused on contested claims, formal hearing practice, and disability-related appeals. Over decades in practice, he has applied that legal training to matters where injured workers need representation through administrative procedures, litigation, and the review of disputed benefit claims.
Turim’s practice is heavily litigation-based, with extensive experience appearing at formal workers’ compensation hearings. He has represented thousands of workers and has helped clients pursue workers’ compensation and Social Security disability appeals. This long-term concentration gives his work a clear focus on workplace injuries, benefit disputes, and the procedural steps required to present claims, challenge adverse decisions, and seek relief through the appropriate administrative and legal channels.
David Turim is a member of the Wisconsin Bar Association and the American Bar Association and serves as a Judicial Court Commissioner. His professional record reflects a sustained concentration on workers’ compensation rather than a broad employment-law practice. He continues to represent injured workers through hearings and appeals, bringing decades of litigation experience to claims involving workplace injuries, disputed benefits, and related disability issues.
