Workers’ Compensation Benefits

The full extent of workers’ compensation benefits you can receive depends primarily on the nature of your work-related injury or occupational disease and how long you will be disabled. The system is focused on compensation for real, quantifiable economic losses, and thus you may benefit from the payment of:

  • All reasonably necessary medical expenses to treat the injury and lessen your disability
  • Benefit checks for approximately two-thirds of your average weekly wage (AWW) if you are judged to be disabled from work for seven days or more
  • Compensation for reduced earning capacity if an injured person determined to have a lasting total or partial disability cannot earn the same wages after returning to work
  • The costs of vocational retraining if necessary to help you return to the workforce in a different capacity
  • An additional lump sum settlement in exchange for agreeing not to pursue additional benefits or reopen the case if the condition worsens later

Contact Our Caring And Experienced Lawyer

We provide informed guidance throughout the work comp claims process and skilled, tenacious advocacy in negotiations, hearings and appeals. On numerous occasions, our firm has also identified and pursued viable “third-party” personal injury claims based on the negligence of someone other than the injury victim’s employer.

Our workers' compensation lawyer wants to make the system work for you and obtain the compensation you deserve, saving you pain and stress along the way.
