David Clegg Case Summary

I received a phone message from a David Clegg, the attorney for the claimant. This case is established for the low back, right knee and consequential foot drop with an average weekly wage of $301.15. The claimant has been classified PPD with an 86% loss of wage-earning capacity. The rate if $172.66 and he is entitled to 475 weeks which is about 9 years worth of benefits. He is obviously above the safety net threshold but frankly at the claimant’s advanced age we probably will not get into that issue. In my report from 12/16/16, I noted the claimant was interested in settling the case under Section 32. I have not heard anything about the case since then until David Clegg called me. I left a message for him to call me back on 08/03/17. I thought the case might be something we could, if we do, settle for a 3 or 4 year settlement. 3 years at the present rate is $26,934.96 and 4 years is $35,913.28 and 1 year for purposes of calculation is $8,978.32. …show more content…

There is nothing to do right now but to wait for David Clegg to see what his demand is and then run it by Delhaize. It is Angelia Rummage’s case and I will run it by her once I hear back from
