COMPENSATION

Workers’ compensation cases are different from personal injury cases in the following ways:
An injured worker does not have to prove their employer or coworker was negligent to recover benefits;
Injured workers get medical benefits paid immediately;
Injured workers get lost wages benefits paid immediately;
There’s no compensation for pain and suffering in workers’ compensation cases;
Attorney’s fees range from 20-25% in workers’ compensation cases than personal injury cases where attorney’s fees can be as much as 40% or more
