Summary

Applicant Israel Hernandez, a carpenter, sustained an industrial injury on May 29, 2012, and the WCJ issued a September 30, 2020 Findings and Award finding need for further medical treatment and permanent total disability. Defendant Zurich American Insurance Company petitioned for reconsideration challenging the permanent total disability finding. After reconsideration was granted, the parties participated in a commissioners' settlement conference and agreed to resolve the matter via a Compromise and Release filed May 27, 2021, for $969,624.00. The Board found the settlement adequate and in applicant's best interest, rescinded the Findings and Award, and approved the C&R. The Board reserved jurisdiction on the division of attorney's fees between current and former applicant's counsel.
