Facts:
The injured client and claimant is John Howard who lives at 1234 Tree Lane, Olney, MD 20852. His date of birth is March 5, 1965 and the last 4 digits of SSN are 4510. His phone number is 240.435.6677.
He injured his back when he slipped on the floor of the packaging section of the manufacturing plant for ABC Corporation, his employer. He advised his supervisor, Gale Brown about the injury on May 2, 2020. The injury happened on May 1, 2020, around 11 am (he can’t recall exact time). No one witnessed the accident.
Howard did not go to the hospital but has been treated with Dr. Leadbetter at 4545 Doctor’s Lane, Olney, MD 20852 since May 2, 202 and he will probably need more treatment.
At the time of the accident, Howard was earning $500 per week. ABC Corporation has paid Howard his salary from the date of the accident and has paid his medical bills. Howard has not personally received any bills from his doctor for treatment.
