  • 1.  Delaware Workers' Compensation LMS/EPAs

    Posted 07-31-2014 22:56

    I have a potential case with an injured worker under Delaware workers' comp jurisdiction, but now residing in south-central PA. The referral source is requesting a labor market survey. I reviewed the State of Delaware's website; Title 19, Chapter 23 but there is nothing specific to vocational services with regards to labor market surveys to assess earning capacity.  I did see a couple of specific cases listed on a Delaware attorney's website that reference the use of a vocational consultant to assess earning capacity. Does anyone have recent experience with vocational services in a DE workers comp case ?

    Hi, there. I have a friend who is also a Voc person in DE. I'll see if I can reach her for you. Hard to catch her though. When do you need this? Thanks.

    Hi Mitch:

    I worked with Danny O'Neal when I was with Liberty Mutual for several years. He lives in Delaware and he has done countless labor market surveys in Delaware over the past 15 to 20 years.  The most recent cell phone number I have for Danny is 302-438-6805. If you are able to reach him, tell him I said "Hi". Danny will be a great help to you.

    Bye for now, Roy.
