It’s a question posed by many injured workers who file workers’ compensation claims: How will I know if I am being treated fairly by my employer and receiving the full amount of benefits I deserve?
If you are hurt on the job, your employer is required to pay the full cost of medical treatment and replace a percentage of your wages if you are unable to work or if you cannot return to work full time. Every claim is different, and determining the right amount of benefits that an injured worker should receive can be complex. There is the question of permanent or temporary disability and whether long-term or even permanent medical treatment is necessary.
Employers and their insurance companies are interested in minimizing the amount they pay out in workers’ compensation benefits. At the Law Offices of Anthony Choe, we work to maximize what our clients in Los Angeles and throughout Southern California recover.
In order to ensure that you receive all of the benefits you deserve, it is important to work with an experienced workers’ compensation attorney like Mr. Choe. He will review the facts of your case and determine what benefits you qualify for. These include:
Many injured workers ask about compensation for pain and suffering. That is not compensable in California workers’ compensation cases. It is possible in a small percentage of workers’ compensation cases to also file a personal injury lawsuit against a third party. We can review the facts of your case during a free consultation to determine if a personal injury lawsuit is warranted.
