LOIS Wins Based on Claimant’s Failure to Provide Updated Medical Evidence of Work Restrictions
LOIS Associate Emma A. Halpin and Paralegal Anna Fatovic secured a win on unrelated wage loss in a New York Workers’ Compensation claim. This claim involved a direct support professional who claimed causally related lost time, and was thereafter terminated due to failure to provide updated medical evidence of work restrictions. Attorney Halpin presented an employer witness, who confirmed that the employer attempted to accommodate the claimant and offer light duty work but could not proceed without concrete restrictions.
