In the last six weeks, over 150 Minneapolis police officers have started the process of filing disability claims.

Meuser, Yackley, and Rowland, P.A. has represented thousands of individuals with their workplace disability and injury claims and specializes in supporting public employees and law enforcement officers eligible for PERA benefits due to physical and mental disabilities, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Today Founder Ron Meuser, Jr. issued the following statement:

On January 1, 2019, a new law went into effect that may drastically change the way work-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) claims are handled in Minnesota. For PTSD injuries that occur on or after January 1, 2019, there is a presumption for first responders that their PTSD is work-related.

Since 1990, Meuser, Yackley & Rowland, P.A. has been helping injured people throughout Minnesota obtain the best possible results for their claims.

Working as a paramedic, EMT or EMS poses inherent dangers, especially during the Coronavirus pandemic. As part of your duties, you are required to go into homes that are not your own and administer hands-on medical assistance to individuals in need.
