While unloading trucks with a hand-held pallet jack, our client developed plantar fasciitis in his feet. After having bilateral foot surgeries, he developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) in his lower extremities that required a lumbar spinal cord stimulator and an intrathecal pain pump implant to manage his pain.

$11,098,000+ in past medical benefits paid
