In this episode of The Trials Podcast, we dive into the real challenges injured workers face under Alabama’s Workers’ Compensation system. Joined by vocational experts Dr. Michael McClanahan and Dr. Matt McClanahan, we explore how workplace injuries impact a person’s ability to return to work, earn a living, and provide for their family. The McClanahans share their decades of experience evaluating cases, explaining how vocational evidence plays a critical role in proving disability and employability in court. From outdated compensation laws to the uphill battles workers face against employers and insurers, this conversation sheds light on the importance of expert testimony and advocacy in work injury cases.
