We recently successfully tried a workers’ compensation case to establish that our client, who suffered a low back injury was permanently and totally disabled under the “odd-lot” doctrine. The client did not have restrictions saying that he could not work, but we were able to show that due to his age, education, language barriers and lack of transferrable skills, he was highly unlikely to find work. Three different vocational counselors testified in the case. Ultimately the arbitrator agreed with our evidence and arguments and awarded our client permanent total disability benefits for life.
