Workers' Compensation Settlement: $125,000

Workers' Compensation Settlement: $125,000
Work injury lawyer,  Mark R. Schmidt, settled the Workers’ Compensation claim of a 51 year old sheet metal worker for the amount of $125,000.00. Attorney Schmidt was successful in convincing the Insurance Company to remain obligated to pay for the injured worker’s ongoing medical treatment for the severe low back injury with radiculopathy that he suffered. In 2012 the Insurance Company began to challenge the injured worker’s right to this ongoing medical treatment through a process called Utilization Review. Attorney Schmidt continued to fight for his client, resulting in a Determination that his ongoing treatment is reasonable and necessary, and must continue to be paid for by the Workers’ Compensation Insurance Company.
