RE: Claim Number 998217- LFE / Dates of Injury 6/15/92 & 6/24/98
As you are aware, I was recently advised that Luis Estrada workers' compensation
attorney for the County has reached a settlement agreement with opposing council
concerning these two claims in the amount of $29,500.00. As you are aware attorneys at
Kelley, Kronenberg had tried on one other occasion to reach a settlement for these two
claims but were unable to because opposing council was adamant in his settlement
demand of $50,000.00.
