Workers Compensation Cases

Workers' Compensation
Our client's spouse died as a result of a one-car accident after he had left a business on his way home. The employee was a salesman for an alcohol distributing company and part of his job involved selling and promoting alcoholic beverages. The employee had been drinking at the time of the collision. Trial at the Division of Workers' Compensation and appeal ultimately resulted in workers' compensation benefits to the spouse for her lifetime and for her minor child during the child's minority. Past and future benefits in excess of $750,000.00.

Our client was hit by a fork lift while working and suffered a crush injury to his ankle. In addition to a workers' compensation claim we were able to file a successful personal injury lawsuit against the worker who caused the accident. Global Settlement of $100,000.00 and waiver of workers' compensation lien.
