Won Large Penalty Case Against an Insurance Company Who Was Delaying Payment of Medical Bills

When the Employer/Administrator had not paid the hospital bills for almost two months, Quatrini Law Group filed a Penalty Petition that successfully established that the delay of payment of medical bills was a violation of the Act.

If a Workers’ Compensation Judge finds that the Employer or Workers’ Compensation Insurance Carrier violated the Workers’ Compensation Act, up to fifty percent penalties can be awarded to the injured Worker. Quatrini Law Group recently achieved a penalty award of $55,995.13 for their client when they convinced the Workers’ Compensation Judge that the Insurance Administrator’s two-month delay in paying medical bills was a substantial violation of the Act.
