Vocational Rehabilitation

Juris Medicus has experts that are credentialed by the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification.

A litigator or insurance professional might need to retain a vocational rehabilitation expert witness to support or defend a case involving the issue of employment or an injury. Vocational rehabilitation is a process by which people with disabilities can receive fair and stable employment. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) states that everyone should be treated fairly in the workplace, regardless of disabilities, and vocational rehabilitation works to ensure that such job equality and work environments are available to each individual.

Vocational rehabilitation experts have expertise in employability assessments, job training, wages, and other important areas of employment. In a lawsuit, the expert might review considerations such as earning capacity and whether or not a disabled individual can be employed after an injury.
