Workers' Comp Lawyer in Columbus, GA

The workplace is never protected from potential injuries. When accidents occur at work, employees and their families need financial help. The employee-employer agreement doesn't end with a paycheck. There is the guarantee that in exchange for their work, employees will be secure in the case of a workplace mishap. Workers' comp insurance is a well-established structure. It only makes sense to use this structure to handle your needs and the needs of your family. 

Workers rely on workers' compensation to handle their needs after being hurt on the job. State and federal laws that support workers' comp are necessary for the safety of the employer and employee alike. If workers' comp is not handled properly by a business or employer, a practiced lawyer like William H. Curtis is required to decide what should be awarded to whom.

Workers' Comp Specifics in Georgia

Wage Payback

These are owed to you at the rate of two-thirds of your weekly wage. This is typically measured by averaging your income for the 13 weeks before your mishap. Cost of living and weekly benefits will not be higher after the amount is decided. Weekly wage benefits are not allocated until the certified treating physician has told you not to work.

Medical Reimbursement

Your employer and their insurance company should pay medical benefits. As the employee, you will not have to pay a deductible. The doctor or hospital will not bill you personally. Medical reimbursement includes travel to and from the doctor and prescription payments.

PPD Rating

When your doctor returns you to work and you are fully recovered, the doctor should provide a PPD rating that will provide an end payment to you.
