If your unable to work light duty, then you should be receiving temporary disability, which equals 2/3 of your average weekly wage. Maybe your case is denied? Call me for a free consultation at 1-877-505-injury.

You should be able to receive either temporary disability benefits or State Disability benefits (SDI). It is always easier to receive SDI since insurance company and/or your employer have no control on it as long as a doctor is willing to certify you for disability. Feel free to call me at 213-388-7070 for a free consultation.
