Workers Compensation Litigation

Workers are entitled to compensation benefits demanded if a worker injured or suffers illness during the course of employment. This system was established to safeguard employers and employees.

However, this system also can be a complex process and could require an attorney to pursue a claim via litigation. These are the most common issues that can be encountered in this type of case.

Claim Petition

If your employer refuses to accept your claim under the workers compensation system, then you might be required to file the Claim Petitition. This is a formal form that is filed with the Bureau of Workers' Compensation in your county or the area in which you work.

This petition contains specific details about your injury, including how it happened. It also sets out your wage loss and medical claims for benefits.

Once the Claim Petition is filed the case will be assigned to a judge in the nearest workers compensation court. The judge will then determine the date for hearing. The first hearing typically occurs within a few weeks following the petition is filed.

The next step in the Claim Petition process is the discovery phase. This will give you and your attorney the opportunity to meet witnesses and gather evidence.

It is essential to employ an experienced and knowledgeable workers' compensation lawyer in the event of pursuing a claim for benefits. A skilled attorney can ensure that you don't overlook the most crucial information in your application.

Mandatory Mediation

In cases involving workers' compensation the parties to the claim (the Employer and the injured worker) must attend a mediation session before their case goes to trial. However, the parties may agree to participate in a voluntary mediation process prior to the first hearing.

At the mediation, the judge brings the injured worker, his attorney as well as the insurance agent or attorney, as well as other individuals who may be able to help the parties come to an agreement. The mediator reviews the basic facts of the case, and gives each party the chance to make their case.

The parties are encouraged to discuss all points of disagreement and listen to the viewpoints of the other. They are also encouraged to change from their initial positions if they wish to reach an agreement.

A lot of workers compensation claims are resolved quickly, but others can take months or years to resolve, which can result in a number of administrative hearings between the parties. Mediation can help parties stay clear of these lengthy and costly proceedings.

Mandatory mediation is a strategy that courts have adopted to help facilitate the resolution of a dispute, before the costs of litigation become an issue. However, it raises a number of ethical concerns, such as confidentiality and good faith participation issues, and it could be difficult to enforce agreements.

Mandatory mediation can be an effective alternative to costly, time-consuming court proceedings, however, it's not a substitute for the voluntary process that has made mediation so effective for participants who are willing to participate. Mandatory mediation is not in line with the provisions of Article 6 of European Convention on Human Rights or the right to a fair hearing. Final analysis of the goals of the participants and the court system must inform any decision on mandatory mediation.
