Practice Areas News
  • May 2012 - Clark & Associates' litigator Jim Magner wins precedent setting appeal before the Virginia Worker's Compensation Commission. Shortly before her injury the firm's client had moved from a part-time to a full-time schedule. Her employer argued that compensation should be based primarily on the injured woman's part-time pay as most of her pay in the previous 52 week period was on part-time basis. Mr. Magner convinced the full Commission panel that the change in schedule really constituted a "promotion" and that only her wages on a full- time basis should be used to calculate her award. The win resulted in an increased award for the client of over 235%.
