DIANE BERLIN WORKER'S COMPENSATION LAW (FOR BOTH EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYEE)

Diane Berlin, Worker’s Compensation Law (for both employer and employee).  Diane showed us a video of a “typical” case involving a stress claim.  The defense in this example was a pre-existing condition.  Defense Apportionment was another theory offered.  The client had “unrealistic expectations.”  She suffers from a Sleep Disorder.  The client is totally neurotic, but Diane is patient, experienced and understanding.  If you file a work comp case after you get fired, it is pretty-much too late.  
Diane has 25 years experience in Worker’s Comp.  She studied 5 languages and is fluent in Spanish.  When an employee sues an employer for anything work-related, even if enroute to work, the doctors get paid, the injured party gets paid and the attorney gets paid directly from the settlement.
Since April 2004, the value of the cases went down 30% to 50%.  For the employee, it is a contingency fee arrangement.  For the employer, it is an hourly fee.
Carpal tunnel, headaches, stress, physical injury are all valid claims.  An independent contractor is not able to file a case, however.  Contact Diane for any work-related injury (employer or employee).http://tinyurl.com/2bjww7n
