The Freibott Law Firm was recently successful in arguing that our client was injured at work and sustained injuries to her head (concussion), neck, and right shoulder. Our firm also alleged that our client was totally disabled from working with her employer from the date after her injury (December 3, 2015) through the present. The Industrial Accident Board found that our client was credible in her testimony. The Industrial Accident Boardalso found that our client’s treating doctor, Dr. Bley, was also credible. Accordingly, the Industrial Accident Board found that our client was injured in an industrial accident on December 2, 2015; found that her treatment to date had been reasonable, necessary, and related to the date of accident; and that she was entitled to ongoing total disability benefits from December 3, 2015 and ongoing. The Industrial Accident Board also awarded the reimbursement of our client’s expert witness fee with Dr. Bley and ordered the Employer to pay at attorney’s fee. (Picerno v. Walgreens,Hearing No.: 1435876 Date of Decision: August 5, 2016)
