Key Concepts in Representing Motor Vehicle Accident Victims - Live & Webcast
3.0 MCLE Credits in areas of Professional Practice
Program Chair, Robert A. Glick, Esq., Brand, Glick & Brand.
 

Your client is injured in a motor vehicle accident.  Your job is to secure the maximum benefits to which your client is entitled as a result of that accident.  This seminar will explore the complex interrelationship amongst three main sources of recovery for people injured in motor vehicle accidents:  No-Fault insurance, Workers’ Compensation insurance, and personal injury actions.  Seasoned practitioners will help you answer these crucial questions: 

Is my client entitled to No-Fault benefits?

Is my client entitled to Workers’ Compensation benefits?
Can my client bring a personal injury action arising from this accident? 

 Does it matter where the accident occurred?

 Does it matter who the various defendants are?

 Does my client meet the “serious injury threshold?”

 What damages can be recovered; what damages cannot be recovered?

 If my client can sue, will the recovery be subject to a lien by the insurance carrier(s)? 

Attorneys who represent plaintiffs, defendants, workers’ compensation claimants, and either compensation or no-fault insurance carriers will greatly benefit from this three hour program.  Learn the key statutory provisions and the latest case law developments in this ever evolving area of personal injury law from a highly regarded panel of speakers.  Register today!
