Subject Don't Rush Into Any Settlement

Date Sun Jun 7 2009 09:30
Author Thomas Atkinson (tom@mndisability.com)

First and foremost do NOT settle your case before you have an attorney at some point. Whether it be me or another attorney (who specializes in Minnesota Work Comp), at least a phone call to discuss your husbands injuries and case should be undertaken. From your short description it appears that all of his medical benefits and lost time have been paid. The question that remains is what if any permanent partial disability he may be entitled to at this time. I strongly urge that you don't let an attorney settle out ALL of his future benefits as part of a claim for PPD that may be owed. A few unscrupulous attorneys often push the same and it is WRONG when your husband has an admitted work injury of such a serious nature. Those benefits are "insurance" and leverage for maintaining his job with the employer and affording some protection should he lose it in the future.

Call me if you want to discuss the case in more detail. Good luck.
