<li>Favorite win was a fraud claim with a permanent disqualification in front of a notoriously picky WCLJ. Our firm was tapped into the case late and there were some issues with the prior litigation. The claimant was working at a laundromat, but claimed that she was not getting paid and was just in training. We had surveillance that helped with that issue but the Board lost the digital audio recording of the claimant’s testimony. So, the claimant essentially got a redo of her testimony after she had already seen all our evidence. She was thus able to change her testimony and tailor it to our proofs. Where we were able to focus was the claimant’s assertion that she was not paid until AFTER we raised fraud and she disclosed her work-activity because she was training without pay for four months. She at first asserted that she received retroactive checks, when we asked for a copy she then said it was direct deposit. The Judge directed her to provide banking records, and she gave incomplete records for a secondary account that showed very little activity. We pointed out that it also did not show the direct deposit of her Workers’ Compensation payments, and provided payment proofs and the information that she had that undisclosed account. We obtained a permanent disqualification despite fate interfering and giving her a second chance. The reason it is my favorite win though, is that while I do not like to judge people, her background check revealed several convictions for cruelty to animals due to her participation in a dog fighting ring. So, it was an unequivocal victory where even claimant’s counsel was happy we triumphed. (Although he gave a heck of a fight for a client he hated, and never let on he hated them until the end.)</li>
