Client Success Story
An asbestos abatement supervisor from Hibbing tore his meniscus in a scaffolding accident. He went to the doctor and was told that he should no longer climb ladders and that he should take time off work. His Workers’ Compensation insurer made on-time payments at first, but then started missing payments, paying late, or asking for additional documentation that had already been sent.
Suspicious that the insurance company was looking for a reason to terminate his benefits, he called Fields Law for assistance. Our attorneys jumped into action, filing a request for rehabilitation services, and obtaining our client’s file from the Department of Labor. Eventually, the insurance company did attempt to terminate our client’s benefits. Our scaffolding accident attorneys compiled medical records supporting that our client was still disabled.
During preparation for a hearing, our attorneys aggressively negotiated a $100,000 settlement. Our client was pleased with the professional advocacy Fields Law provided and was overjoyed with his settlement check.
