00:04
with regards to workers compensation
00:06
case that i have helped
00:09
um in the past a gentleman
00:12
had been a pilot
00:15
for an airline and was in colorado doing
00:18
some training
00:20
and unfortunately died while he was in
00:23
colorado
00:24
and this case i represented the wife and
00:27
two
00:27
young children who were three and five
00:30
years old
00:31
to get them death benefits in their
00:33
workers compensation case
00:35
and it’s already up to the colorado
00:39
supreme court
00:40
and the judges have been holding in our
00:43
favor
00:44
to award death benefits for the wife and
00:47
the children
00:48
because but for being in colorado doing
00:51
training
00:52
he wouldn’t have died while
00:56
within the course and scope of
00:57
employment and one other case that i had
01:00
a while back
01:01
that was quite memorable to me is it was
01:05
a gentleman who suffered an
01:07
elbow injury and he was in such chronic
01:09
pain
01:10
he could never return back to being a
01:12
plumber
01:13
and it really affected him
01:15
psychologically where he became
01:18
deeply depressed because his lifelong
01:21
work as a journeyman plumber
01:23
uh was no longer so he unfortunately
01:27
tried to commit suicide because being so
01:31
depressed
01:32
because he couldn’t return back to being
01:33
a plumber
01:35
he was not successful with his suicide
01:37
attempt
01:38
but i got all the medical treatment
01:40
covered with regards to reconstruction
01:42
of his face and everything
01:44
under workers compensation so it was all
01:47
considered
01:48
part of the workers compensation case
01:51
because it stemmed from the initial
01:53
elbow injury
