I used to practice work comp defense. The billing requirements are very high but you will also have a high caseload. So it’s more manageable. It’s less stressful than civil litigation because there aren’t many hard deadlines, and work life balance is more of a possibility than other areas. If you’re ok with the above - then it’s a good area of practice.

Thank you! What area do you do now? Why did you switch?

I just started working in ID and Workers Comp. and have no substantial work experience in either. The closest experience I have is some personal injury work. Any advice transitioning into this area of law and how I can become better acquainted with this area of law, mainly procedural stuff? Thanks in advance!

I work at a small Midwest ID firm doing mostly MVAs for an Insurance Carrier. Currently have a case where where plaintiff is claiming extensive lost wages from missing tips from working as a bartender/waitress. Place of employment is a strip club, I got a feeling she’s a dancer not a bartender or waitress. But it got me wondering has anyone ran into someone claiming lost wages or revenue from being an OF creator and not being able to crate content due to injury?

Anyone have any suggestions for getting a client to cooperate with discovery. We were retained by a insurance company for their insured and he has not returned emails or phone calls in about 4 weeks. Plaintiff’s counsel wants a settlement offer, and discovery responses or they’re gonna file a motion to compel. The company has been made aware of the insured’s noncooperation but they have tell us they’re pulling coverage for us to withdraw.
