We hope this week’s newsletter finds you well. Last week we saw the oldest person sworn in as President of the United States and the oldest quarterback win a NFL Conference Championship. (That same quarterback is already the oldest quarterback to win a Super Bowl.)...
What’s It Worth?
The question our clients ask us most often when discussing a case is what is it worth?
As a result, a few years ago we started producing a newsletter entitled “What’s it Worth?” in which we discuss the sustainable value of head, neck, shoulder, low back, wrist, hip, leg, knee, ankle, and foot injuries. Below is a compilation of our What’s it Worth newsletters. We hope they are of assistance to you in answering the question, What’s it worth?
What’s it Worth? January 21, 2021
Regardless of our political affiliations we can all agree that every four years the 20th day of January demonstrates the genius of our Founding Fathers and the enduring strength of our American democracy. God speed President Biden and Vice President Harris. Now on to...
What’s it Worth? January 14, 2021
What a week! Looking at the glass half full it appears that everyone agrees that the vaccine needs to be distributed more quickly to more people in more places. Places like Yankee Stadium and Citi Field. Everything else is a bit of a mess unless you are a fan of...

What’s it Worth? November 18, 2020
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the...
What’s it Worth? November 11, 2020
Seven days after “election day” it appears that the winner of the elderly man contest is the older of the two elderly men. Given his age it is no wonder that the older elderly man wants the younger elderly man to concede. Locally, for the first time in recent memory,...
What’s it Worth? November 5, 2020
Just like the election results in the swing states, this week’s edition of What’s it Worth was delayed. Like last week, we are again focusing on soft tissue knee injuries, the sustainable values of which are uncomfortably high. Speaking of uncomfortably high, the...
What’s it Worth? October 28, 2020
This is the first of a two part issue on the value of knee injuries. We suspect that you will be unpleasantly surprised by the amounts sustained by the Appellate Division. Unfortunately the cases we will report on next week will not make you any less unpleasantly...
What’s it Worth? October 21, 2020
Reasons to be cheerful. Election Day is less than two weeks away and the robo calls and political ads will soon come to an end. The Word Series is being played and some fans are actually in attendance. In New York City, it is still warm enough for outdoor dining and...
