About this Episode
Defending a potential Loss of Wage Earning Capacity claim is always a daunting task, but Senior Associate Zaraya Wade is always up for the challenge. Zaraya joins host Christian Sison to talk about strategy from the outset of the claim to limit exposure, her goal to have the claimant return to work in some capacity, and the dilemma of settling versus litigating when a decision has to be made. Even as one of the most fierce litigators, she still aims to be the claimant’s cheerleader when she knows that a return to work is beneficial for both sides. Listen to how she uses a positive approach to high exposure cases!
