Hi, my name is Josh Harrison. I am an attorney at Meuser, Yackley & Rowland, P.A. Before I joined the Meuser team, I was in private practice representing publicly and privately traded companies primarily in shareholder disputes, as well as mergers and acquisitions.

Our clients frequently ask whether they will have to attend an independent medical examination (IME). They are often fearful about attending a physical or mental evaluation by the employer/insurer’s expert.

An Employee must attend an employer/insurer’s reasonable request for an IME

According to Minnesota Statutes section 176.155, subdivision 1, “The injured employee must submit to examination by the employer’s physician, if requested by the employer, and at reasonable times thereafter upon the employer’s request.”

Hi, my name is Scott Rowland, an attorney here at Meuser, Yackley & Rowland, P.A. I represent individuals injured both at work and outside of work. I also represent Minnesota’s peace officers and firefighters in obtaining their disability benefits and healthcare under both PERA and MSRS.

Hi, my name is Nadya Yarmolich and I am an attorney at Meuser, Yackley & Rowland, P.A. Prior to joining the firm, I worked in the corporate setting as an in-house attorney primarily specializing in insurance.
