Legal Question in Workers Comp in New York

Re: wokers comp settlement

It really depends on the facts of each case but generally speaking, yes lost wages count (which covers lost time). The extent of the injury can count if your injury qualifies for a scheduled loss of use. You do not get pain and suffering but medical care is an important factor as well. You should not try to settle a workers' comp case without a lawyer. Please feel free to contact me if you are looking to retain a workers' comp lawyer.
