  • Thoroughly investigate every aspect of the claim by obtaining internal payment documentation.
  • Speak to coworkers and supervisors of the affected employee.
  • Engage in negotiation with every party involved to reach a fair settlement.
  • Preparing a case for a trial by jury if necessary to ensure their client is properly cared for.
