What Am I Entitled To Receive If I Suffer From An Amputation Injury?
For amputees, there is typically a statutory award that must be paid out immediately. Unfortunately, many insurance companies will not do that. For this reason, it is all the more important to seek legal advice from an amputation injury lawyer immediately.
If statutory amputation awards are not paid out immediately, the insurance carrier may be subjected to a 50% increase in the award pursuant to Section 19(k) penalties and attorney’s fees under Section 16 of the Workers’ Compensation Act.
A Peoria amputation injury attorney at our law firm will make it a priority to work promptly so that our clients can receive the compensation they deserve as quickly as possible. Our workers’ compensation attorneys and personal injury lawyers will utilize our resources and try to elevate your case to make certain you get the maximum amount of benefits possible. This may include a wage-loss award, lifetime disability award, or even a total disability award. We are prepared to assist you if you have suffered a loss of a limb on the job, such as loss of a/an:
In addition, amputations oftentimes require lifetime medical benefits for replacements, repair, or upgrades in prosthetics. Also, Strong Law Offices will vigorously pursue handicap home replacement, handicap home upgrades, and/or handicap-accessible vehicles in the event that an amputation necessitates such future medical care.
