Workers’ Comp. Paralysis Case

$12.4 MILLION STRUCTURED SETTLEMENT (APPROX.)

On a pleasant afternoon in October 2017, Deena F., was a passenger in a pickup truck driven by her co-worker as they returned from work. They both worked with her father’s small home improvement company. As Deena’s friend was driving, a small animal darted across the roadway. Her friend swerved to miss the animal, but lost control of the truck. The accident was horrific. Denna suffered a spinal cord injury, resulting in quadrapelegia, and her friend suffered multiple fractures.

Deena, with the full support of her father, filed a workers; compensation claim. The insurance carrier denied the claim under the “going and coming rule”, a legal doctrine which generally precludes workers compensation when an employee is injured while traveling to and from work. The insurance carrier also denied coverage for the claim, contending that Deena was a member of her father’s household, thus excluding her from the policy.

Deena came to us for assistance. While she advised us she had recently moved away from her father’s home and into her co-worker’s home, there was little proof. She had not changed her official address with the DMV and did not receive any mail or household bills at the new address. In an effort to prove her new residence, we knocked on neighbors’ doors and asked around to see if anyone saw Deena living there. Fortunately, Deena’s neighbors recalled seeing her at the home, and seeing her truck parked in the driveway almost every day for the month before the accident. We took depositions of these neighbors, whose testimony proved very helpful. Our investigation further established that work materials were being transported in the co-worker’s truck, a fact necessary to establish an exception to the going and coming rule.
