Disability Benefits Are The BULK of a Workers Comp Settlement!

When negotiating a settlement for your workers comp claim, your disability rating plays a pivotal role in securing a substantial offer.

When you sustain a work injury resulting in permanent disability, your doctor will conduct a thorough physical examination to assess the extent of impairment in your affected body parts. For example, you may receive a 30% disability rating for your right arm or a 50% rating for your right foot.

This disability rating directly influences the permanent disability benefits you're entitled to for the loss of function in the injured area. It's important to note that a lower disability rating from your doctor can significantly impact your settlement, resulting in a reduced offer. This highlights the critical need to consult a doctor well-versed in your state's worker's compensation system.

Furthermore, the insurance company may request an examination by their own doctor to gather an alternative opinion on your permanent disability. Once medical opinions have been obtained, the insurance company typically presents an initial offer, which is often unreasonably low. This is where skillful negotiation becomes paramount to secure a fair settlement.
