The decision by the North Carolina Court of Appeals in Maas v. Walgreens (2022) highlighted how an experienced attorney’s involvement in your workers’ compensation may assist you for your workers’ compensation claim.
In this case the injured employee, without the assistance of a workers’ compensation attorney, requested a trial before the North Carolina Industrial Commission, which resulted in the North Carolina Industrial ordering the employer to pay for certain medical treatment for the injured employer.
The employer appealed this decision to the North Carolina Court of Appeals. The North Carolina Court of Appeals denied the injured employee’s entitlement to certain medical treatment based on the fact this issue was not listed in the pre-trial agreement or Form 44 filed with the North Carolina Industrial Commission.
This case highlights the importance of involving an experienced attorney in your workers’ compensation claim.
