Workers' Compensation
Settlement: $125,000
Attorney’s on Case

A warehouse worker suffered a severe foot contusion due to a forklift accident. X-rays and MRIs did not reveal a fracture. Treatment was non-surgical, consisting of therapy, medications, and pain management referral. A functional capacity evaluation revealed medium work restrictions. At the time the plaintiff consulted with Riddle & Riddle, a pending motion to terminate his workers’ compensation benefits for failing to attempt to return to work had been filed. Riddle & Riddle promptly intervened, filing responsive pleadings, objecting to the defendant’s motion and successfully won the hearing. Following the hearing, the case was settled for $125,000 plus all industrial commission costs and medical expenses.

We represented an HVAC technician who suffered a partial amputation to the tip of his dominant thumb. There were various versions of how the injury occurred, with the employer alleging that our client failed to follow lock-out/tag-out safety procedures, and our client alleging that he was not trained properly. He received a skin graft to his thumb, and then was released to return to work with no restrictions. Attorneys Gene Riddle and Adam Smith were able to secure a settlement of $120,000 in addition to payment of all medical bills and indemnity payments covering all time missed from work.
