Re: lump sum settlement

If you have an attorney representing you on this claim, you should ask him or her to answer this question for you. If you do not have an attorney on this claim then I suggest you at least talk directly to an attorney before you go any further.

Settlement of a Worker's Comp claim is a serious decision. There are a number of issues that need to be looked at before the decision is made. Most of the time, you will be much better off if an attorney is representing you for this.

One of the benefits of worker's Comp is that you can continue to receive benefits over a period of years without having to settle.

Your best bet is to talk directly to an attorney. I will be happy to provide additional information if you want to give me a call. No Charge or obligation for the call and no one will know that you called unless you want them to know.

Good Luck!
