An attorney can work to help you obtain any of the following types of benefits:
- Temporary total disability—if a Physician determines you cannot work due to a work-related injury, you can recover 2/3rds of your regular wages.
- Temporary partial disability—when a Physician approves a return to work after an injury but with restriction, they can receive up to 80% of the wages earned during the time of the accident
- Impairment benefits—a Doctor can clear an injured employee for work but states that they may have permanent work restrictions and can receive pay based on their level of impairment
- Permanent total disability—when even sedentary employment is not possible due to an injury and 2/3rds of the regular weekly wages can be paid
- Rehabilitation—an injured worker who is able to work but not to return to their job can be retrained or rehabilitated by the employer, insurance provider, and other entities
