$237,000.00 settlement for a workers' compensation claim.

On August 2, 2010, the attorneys at The Padberg & Corrigan Law Firm were successful in reaching a $237,000.00 settlement for their client who injured his back in a work-related injury.

On October 28, 2003, the client was working for a trucking company and injured his low back.  The client underwent several back surgeries and was unable to return to work as a truck driver.  The lawyers at The Padberg & Corrigan Law Firm filed a workers' compensation claim.  They retained a vocational rehabilitation expert and a medical doctor to testify that the client was unable to return to work in the open labor market and was permanently and totally disabled from the work injury.  After numerous depositions, the claim was successfully settled two days prior to trial.  The client will receive over $237,000.00 plus additional money to pay for future medical treatment which will be placed in a Medicare Set Aside account.
