Back Injury While Digging Trench
Our client suffered a low back injury while digging a trench. Medical treatment became disputed but we were able to push the matter forward and get our client treatment. Once treatment was completed the insurance company presented a lowball offer. We contested the medical reporting and were able to increase the settlement authority dramatically from $12,500.00 to $30,000.00 after negotiating with the insurance company. Our client also wanted to move on from his previous position and we were able to negotiate a retraining voucher so that our client could learn a new trade.
Our client was ecstatic with the result and the increase in authority that was obtained.
