A woman who was severely injured while working for a well known food service and uniform company was refused benefits by the Workers Compensation carrier. Despite winning Social Security Disability for the woman as a result of the severe injury, the Employer and Insurance company refused to pay Temporary Total disability for several months, even though the Doctor they authorized took the woman totally out of work. At the trial, the employer finally agreed to pay the remaining benefits owed under the law while boosting her weekly pay by over $ 100.00 per week. Penalties and interest were also assessed against the Employer/Ins. for the delay and late payment. Glad to see some justice served.
