Andrew Mazan obtained a favorable jury verdict in the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County Maryland this morning.  Based on the jury’s decision, Andrew’s client can now obtained the medical treatment she seeks. Justice was achieved.

Andrew’s client was injured nearly two years ago on January 13, 2023. Despite a fairly gruesome injury, she was found to be at MMI shortly thereafter by the WCC due to an Employer/Insurer defense medical exam.

A few months later, our client was referred for a right total knee replacement. Her treatment was denied. Leaving our client in desperate straights with no one to turn to except for Andrew.  At one point, the Employer/Insurer – with whom our client has worked for 32 years – made her a lowball offer only if she agreed to resign as part of the settlement.  That practice is somewhat commonplace in Maryland workers’ compensation and is based on the false premise that employees and their co-workers will flock to the Commission with fake injuries if they think the employer will “simply give them money.”  The cynical tort reform world will also tell you other falsehoods about that situation.  At Warnken, LLC, we think that practice is gross.

After a two day jury trial, the jury was convinced that both of the decisions of the WCC were incorrect. They found that the claimant was not at MMI and that the need for her right total knee replacement was causally related, reasonable, and necessary to the injury she sustained on January 13. 2023. The jury deliberated for less than one hour.  Andrew Mazan did what he does – got justice for injured workers.
