$356,382.21 Recovered for Injured Workers’ in June
As we do every single month, Warnken, LLC posts, to the extent we can, our recoveries in personal injury and workers’ compensation cases. See below for specific examples. Just because one client got one dollar amount does not mean another will get the same or similar, even if the injury is similar or other facts are similar. No two personal injury or workers’ compensation cases are the same. There are simply too many variables.
If we can discuss your specific case with you, please do not hesitate to call us at 443-921-1100.
