Workers’ Compensation Contacts
LiraDocs ensures that all key contacts involved in a Workers’ Compensation case are properly recorded, including insurers, adjusters, experts, and authorized representatives.
1. Adding Additional Parties
If you don’t see a specific contact type in the matter details, LiraDocs allows you to:
✅ Add or remove parties via Matter Settings.
✅ Use custom contact fields to track unique roles.
✅ Assign contact roles (e.g., adjuster, employer, medical provider).
💡 Example:
If an injured worker has an authorized representative (e.g., family member or legal guardian), you can add them as an Authorized Contact.
2. Insurers & Adjusters
LiraDocs provides a structured way to track insurance companies and adjusters:
✅ Insurance Companies – Entered without specific contacts (general company details).
✅ Adjusters – Added as individual contacts linked to their company.
✅ Local Office Address – Specify if different from the insurer’s headquarters.
💡 Example:
If a claim is handled by Britam Insurance, you can enter Britam as an insurer and add the claims adjuster separately with their regional office details.
3. Additional Contacts (Experts, Doctors, etc.)
LiraDocs enables you to track medical experts, independent assessors, and other key contacts:
✅ Doctors & Medical Experts – Entered under Medical Providers.
✅ Legal Experts & Consultants – Assigned as Authorized Contacts.
✅ Editable Contact Roles – Modify contact details as needed.
💡 Example:
A Workers’ Compensation case requires an independent medical assessment. The doctor conducting the review can be entered as an expert witness and linked to the matter.
4. Default Contacts in Matter Templates
LiraDocs allows law firms to predefine default contacts in Matter Templates, ensuring:
✅ Consistency across cases.
✅ Faster matter setup.
✅ All essential parties are included from the start.
💡 Example:
For every Workers’ Compensation case, your template can automatically include:
- The Workers’ Compensation Authority
- The insurance company
- A medical provider field
