One of the frustrating realities of workers’ compensation is that doing everything right doesn’t necessarily mean the insurance company will fairly value your claim.**
This injured Wisconsin worker did what he was supposed to do. He reported his injury, sought treatment, followed medical recommendations, and had significant medical and vocational evidence supporting his claim.
Despite that, before our involvement, the defense was offering just $15,000 to settle the case.
We got involved, developed the evidence, obtained the necessary medical and vocational support, and continued pushing the case rather than accepting the defense’s valuation.
The case ultimately resolved for $210,000
That’s one of the reasons I’ve spent my career representing injured workers. The workers’ compensation system can be difficult to navigate even when an injured worker does everything right. Sometimes the difference is having someone who understands the system, knows what evidence is needed, and is willing to keep fighting when the other side says no.
Proud of the work our team at Pivot Work Injury Law, LLC put into this one—and even happier that our client can finally move forward.
