My Workers Comp Case Settled Today for $75k !! Thank You Everyone🙏🏽

Just wanted to give an update and say thank you to everyone in this sub who gave advice and shared their experiences. I just settled my workers’ comp case at mediation for $75,000 today.

For context, my injury happened back in July, so the whole process took about 8 months to finally get resolved. One of the biggest challenges in my case was that my MRI came back negative, which had me worried for a while. But my EMG test came back positive, which ended up helping support my claim and symptoms.

We had an earlier mediation that didn’t settle, but I stayed patient and kept going to treatment and following my lawyer’s advice. Today we went into the second mediation and after negotiating back and forth, we were able to reach $75k and avoid going to trial.

I honestly wasn’t sure how this would turn out at first, but I’m grateful it worked out and that I didn’t have to deal with the stress of a full trial.

Appreciate everyone here who answered my questions and shared knowledge along the way. For anyone still going through the process — stay patient, document everything, and keep advocating for yourself.

Good luck to everyone still fighting their case.
