A truck driver sustained a work injury described as a left upper extremity fracture with radiculopathy in June 2014, which the insurance carrier, CCMSI, accepted. The insurance carrier issued a Notification of Suspension alleging that the injured worker had returned to work at earnings equal to or greater than his time-of-injury earnings and we filed an Employee Challenge Petition regarding the suspension. The case ultimately settled for a lump sum of $150,000 via a compromise and release. We have represented 100’s of truck drivers and dock workers and know the industry very well.
