LOIS Succeeds in Disallowing Occupational Disease Claim on Appeal
LOIS Senior Associate Olivia Barna and Paralegal Brenna O’Brien secured a disallowance in a New York Workers’ Compensation occupational disease claim. The 80-year-old Claimant, a retired truck driver, alleged binaural occupational hearing loss due to exposure to loud noise during the course of his employment with the Self-Insured Employer in 2008. It was not until 15 years later that he sought treatment.
