Your questions answered by a workers’ compensation lawyer in Reading:

How much are workers’ compensation benefits?

Workers’ compensation benefits are different for everyone. As such, payments are based on how much money you made at work before you were hurt on the job. One of our attorneys will be able to answer all of your questions about workers’ compensation claims. After that, you’ll know how much money you can receive.

If I work light-duty, will that affect my workers’ compensation pay?

When working light-duty, workers’ compensation benefits will stop if you make more than or the same amount as your did prior to the injury. However, if you make less, you should receive partial workers’ comp disability benefits for lost wages. Employers do not typically pay these partial benefits appropriately, so you should ask a workers’ compensation attorney to see if you are being paid correctly.

How long do I have to work to be eligible for workers’ compensation?

Coverage begins on the day you start working.

What if my employer or co-worker causes my injury on the job? Can I sue?

If your injury is caused for the following reasons, you can sue:

• Physical Assault: This applies when a co-worker physically assaults you for some reason that is not directly related to your job duties. In this situation, you may have a civil lawsuit against the co-worker and he or she may be subject to criminal prosecution.
• Defective Product or Machinery: This applies when faulty machinery causes your injury. As such, you may be able to sue the manufacturer of the product or machinery which caused your injury. You would also have the right to receive workers’ comp benefits if a defective product or machinery caused your injury while on the job.
• Car accident: If you are driving somewhere for work and are injured in a car accident, you can sue the person who caused the accident. You would also have the right to receive workers’ comp benefits if you are injured while traveling for work.
