Levinson Axelrod, P.A. Attorney Richard Marcolus recently secured a $216,000 settlement for a laborer who sustained a serious back injury while breaking down scaffolding at work. The worker underwent an L4-5 discectomy as a result of the injury. The case faced significant challenges as the insurance carrier disputed the extent of the worker’s disability, citing a pre-existing back condition.

Despite these obstacles, Rich Marcolus vigorously advocated for his client throughout the legal process, resulting in a favorable settlement. The parties ultimately agreed on $216,000, with a provision that allows the worker to re-open the case within two years if further medical issues arise.

This case highlights Rich Marcolus’s skill in navigating complex workers’ compensation disputes and ensuring injured workers receive the compensation they are entitled to, even when facing challenges such as pre-existing conditions.

Rich Marcolus is an attorney and shareholder at the firm, where he focuses on representing injured workers in complex workers’ compensation cases. With years of legal experience, he has consistently fought for the rights of those who have been seriously injured on the job. His work has contributed significantly to the firm's success, securing millions in compensation for clients and helping them navigate the challenges of recovering from life-altering injuries.
