Product Description
Product Description
As the news headlines around the world continue to report changing workplaces, lawyers must prepare to counsel their clients through the types of work-from-home injuries that are or could be deemed compensable under the Workers Compensation Act (MGL Ch. 152) and understand corresponding case law both pre- and post-pandemic. Learn about the types of claims that are typically brought, steps lawyers should take to advise insurers and employees of their responsibilities and burdens, and issues the Department of Industrial Accidents judges consider. The speakers bring the discussion to life through analysis of statutory and case law, case scenarios, and hypotheticals. -
