Product Description

Proving causal relationship between an injury at work and the employee’s disability is not always simple. There are many nuances to General Laws Chapter 152 that may leave you wondering whether an injury arises out of and in the course of the employment. Those few words are associated with decades of case law and fact patterns. This new seminar unravels some of those twists and turns and delivers a deeper understanding of the burden of proof required to make a successful claim or defend one.
