Maryland Workers’ Comp Claims

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Maryland workers’ compensation law provides compensation and medical benefits for workplace injuries. Our lawyers fight to help injured workers recover as much as Maryland law will allow. Our Baltimore workers’ comp lawyers handle claims throughout Maryland. If you do not live close to Baltimore, you do not need to travel to our law firm.

Workers’ compensation is supposed to be straightforward. You get hurt at work. You report the injury. You get medical care. You receive wage benefits if you cannot work. But anyone who has dealt with a real workers’ comp claim knows the system can turn ugly fast. The insurance company may deny the claim, argue your injury is preexisting, refuse to authorize treatment, send you to an independent medical evaluation, or push you back to work before you are physically ready.

Except in certain limited instances, these benefits are the “exclusive remedy” available to injured workers. This means victims of workplace injuries usually cannot file a civil lawsuit against their employer for their injuries. But they can file a civil lawsuit against other parties responsible for their injuries.

California Birth Injury Lawsuits

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

California birth injury lawsuits are about holding doctors, nurses, hospitals, urgent care clinics, OB practices, and other health care providers accountable when preventable medical mistakes cause real harm to the child during the labor and delivery process. But the most devastating California malpractice cases our lawyers see are birth injury lawsuits. Birth injury cases are different. A missed diagnosis in an adult case can ruin a life. A negligent delivery can ruin the life of a child before that child ever gets a fair start. It can also change the parents’ lives forever.

These are the cases where the parents walk into the hospital expecting one of the happiest days of their lives, and they leave with a baby who has brain damage, seizures, cerebral palsy, a brachial plexus injury, or a lifetime need for medical care. That is hard to write. But it is the truth.

California birth injury lawsuits often focus on whether doctors and nurses failed to recognize fetal distress, delayed a C-section, mismanaged Pitocin, ignored abnormal fetal heart tracings, mishandled shoulder dystocia, failed to treat maternal infection, failed to respond to placental abruption, or failed to properly resuscitate the baby after delivery.

Maine Injury Settlements and Verdicts (and law)

by Ronald V. Miller, Jr.

Ten years ago, I posted data showing the average personal injury verdict in Maine was approximately $27,000. These numbers do not tend to change much historically. So my guess is the average personal injury settlement in Maine is between $25,000 and $40,000.

But you have to understand how useless that is if you have a personal injury claim in Maine and you are trying to calculate or predict your settlement compensation payout.

Sample settlements and verdicts are not necessarily much better at projecting settlement amounts. But these are weapons you can use to better understand potential settlement compensation for an injury case in Maine.

2026 Update #1: Rhode Island Opens Sexual Abuse Revival Window

Rhode Island has now opened a two-year revival window for civil childhood sexual abuse lawsuits. Governor Dan McKee signed the legislation on June 11, 2026, and the window runs from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2028. This is the most important Rhode Island sex abuse statute of limitations development in years because it gives survivors with previously expired claims a new opportunity to sue not only perpetrators, but also institutions and supervisors accused of enabling, concealing, failing to report, or negligently supervising the abuse.
