It is important to consult with an attorney before settling your workers’ comp claim. Our attorneys will conduct an assessment of your future medical needs, working with medical professionals and independent medical examiners. We will help determine a life-care plan to ensure that you are compensated for life-time medication, future surgeries, and lost wages. What would happen if your condition worsened?
Before you settle your case, you should understand your immediate and future rights and how a settlement may limit or implicate your benefits. Any settlement should be the reasonable value of your future medical needs. If you do not know the full extent of your injuries or losses, you should consult with a lawyer before settling with an insurance company.
