Philadelphia, PA (March 23, 2026) —Zachary M. Rubinich, a Partner in the firm’s Philadelphia office will serve as faculty presenter for Workers’ Compensation Fundamentals, a live continuing education webinar hosted by Lorman Education Services on April 9, 2026, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:05 p.m. ET.

The program offers experienced practitioners and claims professionals a rigorous examination of workers’ compensation benefit structures, evidentiary strategies, and return-to-work frameworks. Attendees will receive substantive analysis of wage loss, medical, specific loss, disfigurement, and hearing loss benefits, along with actionable strategies for managing claim exposure through independent medical examinations (IMEs), factual investigation, and targeted surveillance.

The curriculum addresses the full spectrum of claim defense methodology, including the strategic deployment of vocational experts, co-worker and supervisor testimony, and social media and background investigations. The program further explores the identification and resolution of barriers to timely return-to-work outcomes, a critical area of exposure management that continues to evolve in the post-COVID landscape.

Mr. Rubinich brings more than two decades of workers’ compensation defense experience to the presentation, having counseled and represented a diverse range of employers, insurers, and third-party administrators in proceedings. He is certified as a Workers’ Compensation Law Specialist by the authority of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, a distinction held by a limited number of practitioners in the Commonwealth.

Continuing education credit is available for attendance, including 1.0 SHRM, 1.0 HR Certification Institute, 1.2 CPE, 1.0 ASA, and 1.0 BCSP credit hours.
