In the 1990s, I represented a number of Idaho Workers\u2019 Compensation insurance companies, defending claims brought by injured Idaho workers. I would see general practice lawyers bring Idaho Workers\u2019 Compensation claims and not truly understand the value of those claims and not know how to bring together the appropriate experts to support their clients\u2019 Idaho Workers\u2019 Compensation claims.

I know that many of these Idaho attorneys mean well and think that Idaho Workers\u2019 Compensation cases are simple and they should be able to collect these benefits for their clients and negotiate a lump sum settlement agreement which would then be approved by the Idaho Industrial Commission.

This allows you to keep up on all the current cases, develop relationships with doctors that are willing to testify before the Idaho Industrial Commission, and be able to know how to package the Idaho Workers\u2019 Compensation claims so that your client\u2019s claim can be presented by the adjusters to their supervisors favorably so that you can obtain the maximum benefits for your client.<\/p>\n
