WARNING:
If you were seriously hurt at work don't talk to any insurance adjuster, nurse case manager, give a recorded statement or sign anything until you read Protect Your Rights: The Injured Worker's Guide to D.C. Workers' Compensation or talk to an experienced lawyer.
Protect Your Rights is a 75 page book on D.C. workers compensation and is available free to anyone who has been hurt at work or any family member of anyone hurt on the job.
Written by nationally recognized, Board Certified trial attorney Frank R. Kearney, this book explains your rights and responsibilities - everything the insurance company won't do.
DISCLAIMER: Please note that every case is different and these verdicts and settlements, while accurate, do not represent what we may obtain for you in your case.
A construction worker was unloading his truck when he was hit from behind by a hit and run driver. The other car crushed him against his work truck, breaking both legs in several places and causing a head injury.
The injured worker needed several surgeries to repair the comminuted fractures and ligament tears in his legs and was not able to return to work in construction.
In addition to a significant lump sum amount, his settlement provides for lifetime medical treatment for both the orthopedic injuries and neurologic (head injury) injuries.
