A St Louis Missouri work comp claim we have been handling recently settled for a $245,000.00 lump sum representing the present value of approximately $750,000. Our Missouri personal injury client, the injured worker, preferred a lump sum payment as opposed to monthly payments over 25-30 years, thus the case was settled in present value as opposed to payments over many years.
This Missouri work comp claim resulted from a work place injury wherein the employee fell from a first story roof. For details see: Previous Missouri Injury Lawyer Blog Entry - Missouri Work Comp Claim
