$666k+ Workers’ Compensation Recovery for Truck Driver Permanently Disabled After Winter Multi-Vehicle Accident

The attorneys at Fitzpatrick, Skemp & Butler, LLC represented a truck driver who suffered severe and permanent injuries after being involved in a multi-vehicle accident during hazardous winter weather conditions.

The collision caused significant injuries to his head, back, arms, and legs. After undergoing extensive medical treatment and a lengthy recovery process, our client was left with permanent disabilities that prevented him from returning to work as a truck driver.

Although the workers’ compensation claim was initially accepted by the insurance company, a dispute later arose regarding the extent of his disabilities and whether he would ever be able to return to employment. His treating physicians determined that he was unable to resume working due to the lasting effects of his injuries.

Fitzpatrick, Skemp & Butler, LLC fought to secure the benefits necessary to support our client’s future. The recovery included permanent wage loss benefits for life, as well as payment of medical expenses related to his ongoing care.

To date, our client has received $612,700 in permanent disability wage loss benefits and $666,839.17 in medical benefits, which continue to accrue.
