seek repayment directly from her settlement. After extensive negotiations, which included months of correspondence with federal agencies and hospital representatives, we successfully resolved the dispute. Confronting the Government The final challenge involved addressing a substantial federal workers’ compensation repayment claim. The federal government initially sought $94,000 from Phoebe’s $100,000 settlement.

We managed to double Phoebe’s initial settlement offer by uncovering additional coverage under her own policy and the at-fault driver’s insurance, convincing the insurance companies to agree to our terms. However, the complexity of her case didn’t end there. Phoebe faced a significant hurdle with a hospital lien stemming from a workers’ compensation billing error.
