Workers' Compensation - Power Press Case [Parties Confidential]
In an industrial setting, a worker was using a power press and was seriously injured. This case not only dealt with Personal Injury issues, but also Labor Law issues.

Rather than risk a trial, which Attorney Withey was more than willing to handle, the employer settled with the employee for $900,000.
