How To MAXIMIZE Workers Comp Benefits!

Показать описание

If you've been injured on the job, you might think that staying home for a long time is the best way to show the extent of your injury and maximize your workers' compensation payout. But in this video, I'll explain why that might not be the case. I'll start by debunking the myth that the extent of your schedule loss of use award is always determined by how long you're out of work. In fact, it's determined by a doctor and is not necessarily dependent on the length of your absence. Then, I'll explain why staying home longer might actually result in a lower payout. The amount of temporary weekly benefits you receive are eventually deducted from any permanent disability award, meaning the longer you're away from work, the less money you'll make. I'll provide an example to illustrate this point. Finally, I'll offer an alternative approach to maximize your payout. By only taking off the necessary time and returning to work as soon as possible, you can receive compensation for the lost time without reducing your permanent disability award.
