Catastrophic Injuries at Work - George Badey on The American Law Journal

Because of the liability waiver that was bargained for decades ago, those injured on the job have always had an inherent disadvantage when it comes to 'making them whole.' In what ways do lawyers and judges try to 'push the system' to approach the 'pain and suffering' remuneration that the same injury might warrant in a Personal Injury case?

Guests include Hon. Joseph Hakun and claimants' attorney George J. Badey III of Badey Sloan and DiGenova. Melissa Schwartz of Naulty Scaricamazza & McDevitt and injured worker and Pennsylvania Federation of Injured Workers representative Dennis Straub provide the defense and injured worker's perspective respectively. Atty. Christopher Naughton hosts.
