Your rights
If you have been injured and someone else is at fault, then you have legal rights and our Los Angeles, CA personal injury and employment law attorneys can represent you. If you have been injured on the job ( workers’ compensation ) or were injured through someone else’s negligence ( personal injury ), you are entitled to possible compensation.
Compensation benefits under the law:
- Medical treatment. Anything and everything you deem reasonable and necessary will be provided.
- Disability payments. If the doctor whom you will be treating for finds that you are disabled and unable to perform usual duties at work, then the doctor will fill out the appropriate forms to stand on disability in which you will receive 2/3 of your regular earnings.
- Compensation. Compensation is paid to the injured worker for his injury. Compensation is based on several key elements which are the doctors’ impairment of disability (percent disability), age, injuries and previous earnings. After calculating these factors a dollar amount of compensation is set.
- Medical treatment in the future. If the doctors determine that you may need future medical treatment after the case is closed, a limited amount of treatment may still be available even after your case is finalized.
- Vocational Rehabilitation. This benefit is worth a minimum of $4,000 to $8,000 as a bonus check capable of being used in a vocational school where you can be retrained to provide alternative services based on your limitations due to your injury.
