The Freibott Law Firm was recently successful in prosecuting a claim on behalf of one of our clients. Our client was injured on April 7, 2022 while working for Amazon lifting heavy boxes within the course and scope of his employment. The Industrial Accident Board found that our client injured his low back as a result of the repetitive lifting of the heavy boxes. The Industrial Accident Board found our client was credible in his testimony about his back injuries. The Industrial Accident Board found that his medical treatment to his low back was reasonable, necessary, and related to the work accident. The Industrial Accident Board also found that our client was capable of working within certain work restrictions and found there should be no change in his partial disability benefits. Because of our successful presentation of the case, the Industrial Accident Board ordered that our expert witness fee be reimbursed to our office and ordered the insurance company to pay an attorney’s fee to our office. (Alfred Koroma v. Amazon.com, Hearing No.: 1523371 Date of Decision: February 16, 2022)
