ABRAMS LANDAU was asked to assist an Airline Captain as the result of an accident on the tarmac. \u00a0This pilot slipped on a wet ramp and fell while deplaning.\u00a0 An Accident Report was filled out for this injury on the Air Operations Area (“A.O.A.”), and the pilot missed only two weeks from work after seeing an orthopedic doctor when he got back to Virginia. \u00a0When his symptoms continued for over a year, the pilot had surgery on his left leg for a tear of the meniscus. \u00a0However, there was a complication during surgery. \u00a0He was hospitalized for clots as an after-effect of the surgery.\u00a0 He was disabled for 7 weeks thereafter and incurred medical bills in excess of $30,000.\u00a0 As the carrier had already denied the claim, we asked for an immediate Workers Compensation Hearing.<\/p>\n

At trial, the ABRAMS LANDAU team won an Award for this hard-working pilot, who had worked his way up in the airline from his start as an airplane mechanic. \u00a0The Workers Compensation Award included: coverage for the compensable consequence of his surgery, payment of all medical bills, travel mileage reimbursement, and future permanency.\u00a0 In injury cases, the responsible party may have to pay for the original injury, as well as the complications or “compensable consequences” of the original injury. \u00a0This is important because this pilot\u2019s problems all began with that fateful slip on a wet ramp while he was on the job over a year prior to the surgery itself. \u00a0What seemed like an inconsequential injury turned out to be a very big deal! \u00a0Luckily he sought the advice of Herndon injury lawyer Doug Landau.\u00a0 If you or someone you know has been injured in a job-related accident with lingering effects of the injury and there are questions about your eligibility for a Workers\u2019 Compensation claim, e-mail <\/a>or call us at ABRAMS LANDAU, Ltd.
