| 00:04 | ANNOUCNER: Welcome to Lawyers in the House with Montlick. Wish you had a lawyer in the family? Now you do. Here’s your host, Veronica Waters.
VERONICA: Hey friends, welcome to The House. Lawyers in the House with Montlick on WSB. I’m your girl, Veronica Waters. You know this and I’m so happy to have you back in the house with us right now. |
| 00:30 | VERONICA: Pull up a chair, get you a cup of coffee, get you a cup of something because we are going to be digging into some good stories today. If you remember, this is kind of the sequel to our episode from last week. So we left you on a little bit of a cliffhanger talking about real life stories of people who’ve been hurt on the job and how they can have an intersection between a worker’s compensation case and a personal injury case, which are not the same thing, how complex those systems are, and why you need somebody on your side helping you fight through them on your way to recovery. |
| 01:05 | VERONICA: So, I started off last week asking everybody to answer this question. Who would win a fight between a young, rowdy, Rocky and a spirited and determined Daniel LaRusso from the karate kid. They’re both fighters, but they have different skill sets. And so, they might come at the problem a little bit differently in the house with us today for another week is Montlick Injury Attorney Faris Zejnelovic, and he is such a fighter who has different skill sets for handling different types of cases. |
| 01:35 | VERONICA: Faris has been with Montlick since 2014. He’s been a lawyer since 2013 and until very recently was working exclusively in workers compensation, which means he’s got a broad base of knowledge about how to handle the ins and outs of workers compensation, not just here in Georgia, where we sit today as we talk to you, but in other states as well. Faris, just to sort of remind people about who you are as a person, your motivation to become an attorney started when you were just a little boy. |
| 02:05 | VERONICA: And you said you saw people in your own community being taken advantage of by big insurance companies. Tell me about your community and about those experiences you saw.
FARIS: Yes, so as someone who came to this country as an immigrant, and English is not my first language, and I witnessed that, unfortunately, often insurance companies and sometimes employers can take advantage of folks who cannot adequately advocate for themselves. Of course, language barriers can be a big problem. |
| 02:34 | FARIS: Not knowing the system can be a big problem. And so, I, from an early age, wanted to help. And I thought the best way to do that was to become a lawyer and join a good firm that helps people and do just that.
VERONICA: Now, I was talking about fighting for cases, right? But you actually are a fighter in your private life. FARIS: Yes, I could say so. Yeah. I’ve been practicing mixed martial arts for as long as I’ve been a lawyer. |
| 03:08 | FARIS: And so, I’m looking forward to answering that question about Daniel and Rocky.
VERONICA: You know what? Why don’t we just put it out there right now? You’ve got experience. You know a lot of different types of martial arts. You’re an MMA fighter. You’ve won some brawls yourself. So, who’s going to win? FARIS: Well, I’ll tell you really simply. It depends. No, but really it depends. Are we talking a street fight? Are we talking a boxing match? |
| 03:36 | FARIS: Are we talking a karate competition? Because it can all make a difference. They have different skill sets. And depending on which environment they find themselves in, it may make a difference.
VERONICA: Depending on which environment you find yourself in, whether you’ve been hurt on the job and through no fault of your own, also suffering a personal injury because someone else was negligent or did something wrong, you’re going to need somebody who knows how to brawl for you. So welcome back to the House. Faris ZaZejnelovic, Montlick Injury Attorney. Thank you again for being here. |
| 04:06 | FARIS: Absolutely. Thank you for having me.
VERONICA: I really want to dig into that, though, because can we just sort of remind folks that these cases are not the same? What qualifies as a personal injury case? FARIS: So, for personal injury cases in the state of Georgia, we have to prove that the injury that occurred was due to somebody else’s fault. Whether that’s negligence or sometimes these injuries occur on purpose, but we have to prove that somebody else is at fault in order to be able to make a recovery. |
| 04:38 | FARIS: We also have to prove that there’s damages. Whereas in workers’ compensation, it is a, and this varies from state to state, but in the state of Georgia, it’s a no-fault system, meaning that we don’t have to prove that an accident is somebody else’s fault. All that we have to prove is that a person was working for their employer, working on behalf of their employer, and was injured and requires treatment.
VERONICA: All right. So, the fault thing is maybe the biggest thing that separates workers’ compensation and personal injury. |
| 05:09 | FARIS: Yes, there are other differences. In personal injury, we’re able to recover for pain and suffering, for example. So, in personal injury, we’re able to recover for lost wages. We’re able to recover for medical bills, pain and suffering, sometimes punitive damages. Whereas in workers’ compensation, we are limited in recovering only three benefits, and that is medical treatment through an approved worker’s comp doctor, sometimes a weekly check if a person misses enough time from work, and then a disability rating if their doctor gives them one. |
| 05:44 | VERONICA: Okay. And then you mentioned that the disabilities too are not for life. That’s not something that you can get for life. Even if you lose a limb, which I found incredibly fascinating and sobering.
FARIS: So, in workers’ compensation, there are exceptions. There are cases called catastrophic cases that have to be specifically designated as catastrophic cases where benefits are pushed out sometimes through retirement, sometimes to the end of a person’s life. |
| 06:11 | FARIS: But I have never met a person who has lost a limb in a worker’s compensation setting and has felt as though they were made whole by the worker’s comp compensation. So, we often look for other sources of recovery. And in the personal injury field, although we cannot help a person, of course, get a new arm or anything like that, we can at least help them more adequately recover oftentimes a larger amount of money through settlement, through a jury trial than workers’ compensation. |
| 06:46 | VERONICA: So, it’s not just that Montlick Injury Attorneys can get you more money. It’s that you know how to look to get that money.
FARIS: Absolutely. And sometimes it’s difficult to find these alternate avenues of recovery, but that’s why it requires experienced good attorneys who will look and who are not afraid of looking and digging to make sure that we find all sources of recovery for our clients. |
| 07:12 | VERONICA: It’s interesting that workers’ compensation can be so limited, though, because I would think that if I’m hurt on the job and it doesn’t have to be my fault, right? It could be somebody else’s fault. Well, let me just let me back that up. If it is somebody’s fault, then I probably almost certainly have a personal injury. Yes, or no? FARIS: Not if the other person who hurts you is a coworker. If they work for the same employer, then you are limited in recovering through workers’ compensation. |
| 07:42 | FARIS: You’re in that sort of closed universe of workers’ compensation. And we get those calls often. They’re very sad calls. Hey, so-and-so person was being very negligent. And I told them before that they need to be better about how they’re operating that forklift or whatever the case may be. And now they ran me over. And then, of course, I have to explain that in the state of Georgia, if that is it, if that other person works for the same company and we cannot find a third party who may be liable for this, then they are entitled to those three benefits we’ve talked about, the Worker’s Comp. |
| 08:12 | FARIS: We cannot recover for pain and suffering or for punitive damages. However, sometimes it turns out that that person or operating that forklift does not work for the same employer. Maybe they are working for somebody else.
VERONICA: And so, it’s a contractor or something like that? FARIS: A contractor, a delivery person, anybody who’s not under the umbrella of the same employer. And then sometimes we’re able to both recover in Worker’s Comp and in personal injury. And very often, those personal injury cases are worth a lot more money for our clients. VERONICA: Yeah. |
| 08:41 | VERONICA: And you know I do want to sort of remind everyone, not just myself, but you know these cases are about injuries. It’s about people being hurt. And when we talk about money, it’s not just like some, you know, prize, some jackpot that you’re getting. This is meant to help you on your road to recovery and what may be a very changed life going forward. As you mentioned, to your point, you could lose an eye. You could lose a limb. |
| 09:09 | VERONICA: And God forbid, there are sometimes families who lose people’s they lose their relatives. People die in workplace injuries. And those are documented. And so, there’s something in place to try to help people move forward after that.
FARIS: Absolutely. So, you know in most cases, we first help our clients within personal injury setting, you know getting their cars fixed and getting to a good doctor and getting medical treatment. |
| 09:36 | FARIS: In Worker’s Comp, that also involves making sure that if they are entitled to a weekly check, that they’re receiving that on time. And so, we help people through this very difficult time in their life. And then at the end, when the case is ready for settlement, we make sure that they’re compensated fairly with a monetary settlement because that’s the only thing that the insurance company at that point can offer them to try to make them whole in the personal injury setting, not so much in the worker’s comp setting. |
| 10:07 | VERONICA: So, what I also find interesting is that you get the workers when you get the worker’s comp case set up, you are getting some money for your medical treatments and your wages right away. Whereas if you only have a personal injury case, you have to wait until your treatment is done and you know what your prognosis is before you can make a settlement.
FARIS: Yes, they are different in that way as well. So, for example, when it comes to lost wages in a personal injury setting, if a person is missing time from work due to their injury, we will set up a lost wages claim on their behalf, and we will often be able to successfully recover that. |
| 10:43 | FARIS: But it does come at the end of their case. Whereas in workers’ compensation, if they’re missing time from work due to their injury and the doctor is backing them up, we’re often able to get them a check in real time that will at least cover some of their bills as they’re recovering from their injuries.
VERONICA: So, Faris, you have been at Montlick Injury Attorneys, as I said, since 2014, working exclusively in workers’ comp. And now you’re moving over to the personal injury side. May I ask you; how often do you see these cases intersect? |
| 11:14 | FARIS: So not too often. It’s certainly not a majority of our cases. I would say maybe 5 to 10% of cases will be both. But when they are both, they can often be very, very beneficial for the client if we’re able to get them recovery on both sides.
VERONICA: Can you give me some examples? FARIS: Sure. So actually, I had a personal friend whose job involved him having to drive from vendor to vendor, and he was on the highway, and he was rear-ended. |
| 11:41 | FARIS: He was in his own car, but he was rear-ended by a commercial vehicle. And because he was on the job, and he suffered really bad injuries, he tore his bicep, and he had back injuries and neck injuries, and he required multiple surgeries. So, he missed about two years from work. And if this was just a personal injury case, he would have had to find a way to pay his bills while we’re negotiating a settlement on his behalf. And we certainly never want to rush those. |
| 12:11 | FARIS: But because he was on the job, we were able to get those surgeries paid for through worker’s compensation, get him a weekly check while he was recovering from these injuries and from his surgeries, successfully settle his worker’s compensation claim for six figures, and then turn around and also successfully settle his personal injury case against the truck that hit him for significantly more than his worker’s compensation claim. So, he had a weekly check while he was going through this. He had free medical treatment, and he had two settlements because we were able to recognize that he was able to have both cases at the same time. |
| 12:43 | VERONICA: That’s incredible. Is that kind of recovery in a worker’s compensation one that’s like really notable?
FARIS: So, a six-figure settlement in workers’ compensation is on the rare side. It requires usually serious injuries, usually surgeries. But again, it’s very fact specific. It depends on case to case. And it depends on when in the case we are looking at settlement. So that is a very good question, but a very difficult one to answer because it varies so much from case to case. |
| 13:15 | VERONICA: Let’s talk a little bit more about case to case. More of these personal stories from Montlick Injury Attorney Faris Zejnelovic when we come back on Lawyers in the House with Montlick here on WSB.
ANNOUNCER: You’re listening to our podcast, Lawyers in the House with Montlick. Join us 8:00 a.m. every Sunday if you want to listen live on 95.5 WSB. VERONICA: Welcome back to the House. |
| 13:43 | VERONICA: Lawyers in the house with Montlick on WSB. I’m Veronica Waters here with Montlick Injury Attorney Faris Zejnelovic. We’re talking about the intersection between workers’ compensation and personal injury cases. And Faris tells us there may be only 5% or 10% of cases which actually have that intersection. But oh boy, oh boy, when they do intersect, you need somebody to help you unravel those mysteries in that really complex area of the law. |
| 14:10 | VERONICA: The Bureau of Labor Statistics has some most recent statistics out about fatal work injuries, Faris. And there were 5,190 fatal work injuries in the United States in 2021. That was a nearly 9% increase from just the year before. And I think it’s interesting that we’re talking about fatalities because we’re talking about people themselves being hurt here, but it could also be that your loved one didn’t survive an incident that happened at work. |
| 14:40 | FARIS: Yes. And unfortunately, what happens often is when we do have death cases in the worker’s compensation setting, the recovery is not even close to adequate. So, in the state of Georgia, when a person dies on the job, their spouse is entitled to 300 weeks of their TTD rate. TTD rate is their temporary total disability rate. |
| 15:06 | FARIS: And the way that is most commonly calculated is we take the injured workers’ average weekly wage, meaning what their gross income is for the 13 weeks prior to the accident, that gets averaged out. And the TTD rate is two-thirds of that, up to $800. These laws vary from state to state, and they’re often changed. So, in Georgia, that $800 number just became current on July 1st of this year. |
| 15:37 | FARIS: Before that, it was $725. Before then, it was $675. So, for folks who were injured before July 1st of this year, that number may even be lower. And so, death cases in workers’ compensation are never adequate. The compensation is never adequate. And so, it’s very, very important that we’re allowed to take a deep dive into whether there could possibly be a third party claim as well, because those can often be a lot more valuable to the grieving family. |
| 16:09 | VERONICA: Faris Zejnelovic Montlick Injury Attorney, talking about the intersection between workers compensation and personal injury, how gruesome and sad it can get, and why you need the right attorney on your side fighting for you. More of these emotional stories are straight ahead on Lawyers in the House with Montlick. I’m Veronica Waters. Stay with us.
ANNOUNCER: You’re listening to our podcast, Lawyers in the House with Montlick. Join us 8:00 a.m. every Sunday on 95.5 WSB. |
| 16:40 | VERONICA: Hey, come on back into the house. Lawyers in the House with Montlick on WSB. I’m Veronica Waters here talking to Montlick Injury Attorney and MMA fighter and champion, shall I say? He’s also a champion in the courtroom and working on cases for you. Faris Zejnelovic, who has been with Montlick since 2014, married, father of three, multilingual, came to the United States from Bosnia years ago and knew that he wanted to become an attorney to help people who have been hurt and didn’t want to see folks taken advantage of. |
| 17:14 | VERONICA: If you’ve missed any of Faris’s great story and some of the things he told us about working behind the scenes, you are going to want to make sure that you subscribe to our podcast, Lawyers in the House on your favorite podcast platform. Doesn’t matter. You can always find us out there. And remember that we’d love to keep up with you between shows on all social media platforms. We are at Montlick Law. So, check us out. Tweet us and TikTok us and Instagram us all the great stuff you can do with us. We’re here for you. Faris is laughing. |
| 17:45 | VERONICA: Faris, I’m making some smiles here, but you left us with some really sobering information right before the break. A person’s life, at least in the state of Georgia, the way that the law is written and the way the numbers are calculated could be worth only 300 weeks of a worker’s comp payment if there’s no personal injury case.
FARIS: That’s correct. |
| 18:09 | FARIS: So, in the state of Georgia, if the only dependent is the spouse, the spouse would be entitled to 300 weeks of the deceased workers’ TTD checks plus help with the funeral. If there are minor children involved, sometimes those benefits can be extended out further, but those are always complex situations, and it’s very important to get an experienced attorney to help, because rarely will the employer insurer willingly extend that period of time of those benefits to a family? |
| 18:50 | VERONICA: Georgia is where we are recording, but I know this can vary from state to state. And I want to dig into in a little while, if you don’t mind, maybe some of the cases that you’ve done working across state lines, you know, cases that you’ve had where you had to sort of delve into the differences in the law from state to state. In Georgia, however, the state board says that there were about 112,000 workers’ compensation cases in the year 2022 alone. |
| 19:24 | VERONICA: And an insurance industry site put the number nationwide at 4.9 million workers’ comp cases. Now that’s for both private industry and government workers. That’s a lot of folks getting hurt.
FARIS: Yeah, and I would assume that the varying degree of injuries is different from case to case. There’s a very large number, but you know we’ve had people call us who’ve suffered very minor injuries as well. |
| 19:51 | FARIS: And so, I think that if all those cases are included in there, then that may inflate those numbers a little bit, I suppose. But it’s certainly important to try to maintain a safe work environment for people because these workers’ compensation claims are expensive for everybody, including I recognize for the employer insurer, they have to pay for medical bills, they have to pay for weekly checks. The injured worker is the victim, but that doesn’t mean that the employer insurer doesn’t have to pay for that. |
| 20:21 | FARIS: And so, I think that everybody wins when the work environment is safer.
VERONICA: Yeah, so I think it’s important to note that the workers’ compensation law is in effect because it’s a balance between getting an injured worker back to health and allowing still employers to actually have employees, to make sure that they can get compensated so that they can come back to work, but also so they can get well. |
| 20:53 | The workers’ compensation is sort of a balance, if you will, between the needs of both the employer and the employee.
FARIS: Correct. In the state of Georgia, it’s a deal that was struck by employer insurers on one side and workers on the other side that allows for a safety net for injured workers to be able to get free medical treatment and to be able to have some money coming in to pay for bills when they’re missing time from work in exchange for not being able to sue employers outside of the worker’s compensation system for sometimes cases that would be worth 10, 20, 100 times more if it was a personal injury setting. |
| 21:36 | FARIS: And so, this is good for employees because they get free medical treatment. They get a weekly check sometimes. It is good for employers because often they’re shielded from third-party claims.
VERONICA: What happens if an employer doesn’t have workers’ comp insurance and they have so in the state of Georgia, and I know we keep saying this, things can vary from state to state. And you see it all the time in different states. But in Georgia, if you have three or more employees, you’re required to have workers’ comp insurance, right? |
| 22:09 | FARIS: Correct. If you have three or more employees, you’re supposed to have insurance for workers’ compensation. If you don’t carry it, and some industries are a little bit more notorious for this than others, then if an injury occurs, that employer is liable, the same as an insurance provider would have been.
VERONICA: You also mentioned earlier that in your place of work, there needs to be a clearly posted what’s called panel of physicians, at least in Georgia, that’s what it’s called, that lists six entities to which you would go. |
| 22:46 | VERONICA: You get your choice between those six if you were hurt on the job. And that’s from where you choose your doctor.
FARIS: Correct. Six or more. Six is the minimum. VERONICA: Okay. FARIS: It is prudent, I think, to consider putting more options on there because sometimes these doctors no longer are in business. Sometimes they don’t want to treat worker’s comp patients anymore. |
| 23:08 | FARIS: And so, I think that having a good variety of quality doctors on these panels of physicians helps both sides because the employer will benefit if their injured worker is seen by a quality doctor and gets better treatment and gets healthy faster. Of course, the injured worker benefits from the same thing. |
| 23:31 | FARIS: And so I think that sometimes insurance companies are so focused on putting doctors on these lists who are going to be more conservative in how they provide treatment and sort of miss the big picture of that may lead to invalid panels, that may lead to calls to attorneys, that may lead to bigger cases against them, versus providing quality doctors on those lists that could avoid all of these issues for them. |
| 24:01 | VERONICA: Yeah, in our first episode, Faris told us a really shocking story, real-life example of how there are some doctors out there who actually market themselves in this way and what a shock it is to you to find out that this happens if you’ve been hurt on the job. You don’t want the thought in the back of your head to be, is my doctor really looking out for me or are they just trying to rush me back to work for my employer’s benefit because they’re getting all this business from them and they’re, you know, they’ve promised them that they’re going to rush me back as soon as possible. |
| 24:36 | VERONICA: It’s a scary thought. In Georgia, it’s been flagged as the number one state to do business for 10 years in a row now, as we sit here by Area Development Magazine. And that means that there are a lot of industries who are paying attention to that. So, we are known here in Georgia for so many industries. We’ve got aerospace, we’ve got agriculture, we’ve got retail, we’ve got food manufacturing, transportation, material moving, warehouses, the medical field. |
| 25:07 | VERONICA: There’s a lot here. There are a lot of places for folks to work.
FARIS: There are, and we get calls from people working in most of those industries. Some are more notorious for causing injuries than others. So, we have a lot of folks who call us who work in very difficult warehouse settings. |
| 25:27 | FARIS: And so it’s, as always, important to call us as soon as you realize that you were injured and that if you recognize, if there’s any red flags, that either your doctor or your employer are saying something to you or leading you in a direction that may not be in your best interest, give us a call. The consultation is always free and it’s confidential. |
| 25:52 | FARIS: I find that sometimes folks are a little bit hesitant to call us for worker’s comp injuries because they may be worried that somehow word will get out that they called an attorney. And that will certainly never be the case when they talk to us about a workplace injury. We don’t contact anybody until we get their permission to do so. VERONICA: And worst that can happen is they call you up and you just give them a roadmap of where they go from here because maybe you know there’s a case, maybe there’s not. But you can tell them from your experience whether it is or not. |
| 26:21 | FARIS: Absolutely. I always encourage folks to call us early. Sometimes it doesn’t even make sense for them to hire an attorney after that first conversation, but at least they’ll protect their own claim and help themselves throughout their claim. And then if six months later they decide that they do need to get us involved in a worker’s comp claim, the claim is still viable. They haven’t fallen into a variety of pitfalls that the insurance companies sometimes can try to lead them into.
VERONICA: So, I promised people that we were going to dig into some of your stories. |
| 26:51 | VERONICA: So, you mentioned a big, big, big one that you did across state lines. Let’s talk about that.
FARIS: Yeah, so I received a call from a young man’s fiancé who they live in Georgia, but he was injured in the state of Alabama. His job was to drive a tractor trailer, a flatbed tractor trailer across state lines. He would pick up a load and he would drop it off wherever he was supposed to drop it off. |
| 27:21 | FARIS: In this case, he was transporting marble slabs to Alabama. And he did not load them, but it was his job to unload the straps on his flatbed when he got to Alabama. And so, when he did this and he unloaded the slabs, they came tumbling down towards him. He jumped out of the way to save his own life, but it crushed his legs. And so, because he lived in Georgia, the fiancé called us. |
| 27:53 | FARIS: Luckily, you know we do work all across the United States and we have attorneys who are licensed in numerous states. And so, I was able to partner with one of my colleagues and be able to offer him a worker’s comp claim in the state of Alabama while also looking into a third-party claim for Illinois where he was loaded because he was not the one who loaded his truck. |
| 28:22 | FARIS: We looked into whether somebody improperly loaded it and pursued a third party claim there. And so, because we’re a national firm, we’re able to address all of these issues across state lines very often.
VERONICA: Thank you, Faris. Coming up next, the Montlick closing argument is straight ahead on Lawyers in the House. ANNOUNCER: You’re listening to our podcast, Lawyers in the House with Montlick. |
| 28:51 | VERONICA: If you want to listen to our radio show live, you can hear it every Sunday, 8:00 a.m. on 95.5 WSB. Hey friends, it’s lawyers in the house with Montlick on WSB. I’m Veronica Waters here with Montlick Injury Attorney Faris Zejnelovic. We’re talking about the intersection of workers compensation and personal injury. It is a rare one, but a big one whenever it happens. And you’ve been waiting for this all hour long. You know you have. So, sit back and relax. The Montlick closing argument is here. |
| 29:21 | VERONICA: Faris, take it away.
FARIS: So, cases where personal injury and worker’s compensation intersect are by definition going to be complex. And it’s important, very important, to hire the right attorney early on that can handle both successfully. Since we’ve talked about personal stories, I’ll share another one. I, last year, received a call from a driver of a tractor-trailer who was injured on the job, but he was rear-ended by another tractor trailer, and it was a bad accident. |
| 29:56 | FARIS: So, he called me and I handled his worker’s compensation claim, and one of our personal injury attorneys handled the personal injury part of his claim. In-house, we worked together. Everything was going very smoothly for this young man. A few months later, he calls me, and he tells me, “Actually, I was driving team with another driver. He actually suffered the exact same injuries as I did, but he ended up hiring two separate firms for personal injury and workers’ compensation, and he’s not at all happy with how things are going. |
| 30:25 | FARIS: Can he call you?” And I said, “Of course.” So, I spoke to him and my personal injury associate spoke to him as well, and we were able to help him with both of his claims in-house the same way we did with the first driver. Luckily for him, we had already preserved some of the key evidence because we were handling the same case for the first driver early on. But if we didn’t, and he called us a few months later for the first time, that could have been a problem. |
| 30:54 | FARIS: So, I go back to saying it’s so important to call a firm that can handle both types of cases in-house for you early on so we can make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible.
VERONICA: So, you were able to recover both workers’ compensation settlements and personal injury settlements for both tractor-trailer drivers in the same accident. FARIS: Correct. They both got surgeries paid for by worker’s compensation. They both received recoveries in Worker’s Comp and in personal injury. And we were able to make sure that everything was timed correctly so their recovery would be maximized. |
| 31:25 | VERONICA: That’s incredible. That’s incredible, Faris. Now, are those payments taxed? Do you have to pay taxes on that?
FARIS: Most of the time, no. Especially in the worker’s compensation side of things. The weekly checks that people receive are not considered earned income, so they are not taxed. The settlements are also not taxed. VERONICA: Thank you so much to Montlick Injury Attorney Faris Zejnelovic. I’m saying a happy do Virginia to Faris. That means goodbye in Bosnia. And this guy’s multilingual. I can’t say it in all four languages or five languages that he knows but trust us. |
| 31:57 | VERONICA: This is a guy that you want to say hello to when it comes to brawling for your recovery. Faris Zejnelovic is the guy who says he’s got it for you if it’s a Workers Comp case and now personal injury. Remember, Margaret Thatcher said you may have to fight a battle more than once to win it. If you’ve got two battles ahead of you with a case such as this, make sure that you have somebody fighting for you in your corner. Who knows what they’re doing. I’m Veronica Waters. We’ll see you next week. |
