Description
It can be frustrating when we are moving forward with a claim, focusing on worker wellness and seeking the best outcome post-injury, and then boom: a Letter of Representation is received! What happens when the worker is non-compliant or obtains plaintiff counsel? This multi-disciplinary panel will share their successes and lessons learned with audience.
In this presentation, you will learn:
• The effect that representation has on a claim
• Why a claimant often gains representation
• Ways to avoid attorney involvement (where possible)
