Legal Question in Workers Comp in New Jersey

I live in New Jersey, I was just awarded a fully favorable SSA decision retroactive to 1-8-07. In the interim, i received a Met Life monthly benefit from my disability policy through my previous employer coverages. I most likely receive a substantial sec. 20- New Jersey in lieu of Work's comp settlement. My question is as follows, the language of my Met Life policy is VERY vague about any interpretation of sec. 20 lump sum BECAUSE it is not a true periodic benefit.......Met life says...we dont know.......... we'll have to read the judge's order. None the less, their vague language leaves me insecure and legally not protected any suggestions????

I can't answer this question fully without first reviewing the MetLife policy. If you have a lawyer already representing you, then you should be asking him this question. If you don't have a lawyer, then please feel fre to contact me for a free consultation. Thank you.
