Bob had successive injuries on the job. Between them, he warned management that he had been injured and was on restricted work duty.

His supervisor ignored the warnings and sent Bob back to work.

We fought the Company on the issue of whether Workers’ Comp was the sole avenue of our client’s redress.

A Superior Court Judge agreed with our position that Bob had the right to seek damages in both venues, because his civil rights claim of failure to accommodate an injured worker was not subsumed by the Workers’ Comp statute.

In mediation, we were able to negotiate significant damages for Bob.
