Wilson Workers’ Compensation Lawyer

An injured employee should ask themselves these questions before settling their workers’ compensation claim against their employer’s insurance:

1. Are you certain that you have received the proper amount of weekly workers’ compensation from the insurance company?

2. Have you received all the medical treatment necessary to fully evaluate and treat your condition?

3. Should you receive a second medical opinion on your permanent disability rating and medical treatment, and if so, how, where and when should you do so?

4. Should your case include vocational rehabilitation until you locate a job, and if so, exactly what are your rights to “suitable employment” in North Carolina, or are you required to accept any job offered?

5. How do you negotiate a settlement with the workers’ compensation insurance carrier that ensures your rights to monetary compensation and medical benefits are fully and fairly considered?

6. If you resolve your claim by returning to work with your same employer, have you taken steps to see that your rights to medical treatment are protected if required on a lifetime basis, or will your right to medical treatment terminate within two years after you receive payment for your disability rating?

These are just a few of the many complex and important questions that may arise in a workers’ compensation claim and require careful consideration and counseling by an experienced workers’ compensation attorney in Wilson, such as those with the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin. If you’ve been injured on the job and are concerned about your rights being protected, contact us right now to see if we can help you.
