Medical Benefits

When you are injured at work, your employer or their insurer must pay for all necessary and reasonable medical expenses. Your employer, however, has the right to select the doctor who will treat your injuries.

If the insurance company has denied your claim or you feel that the doctor is under pressure to get you back to work, we will fight to get you the recovery time and medical assistance you need. At Silvi, Fedele & Honschke, we will make sure that your rights are protected. In these cases, we can file a motion for medical and/or temporary disability benefits.

Temporary Total Disability

If you are injured, under active medical care and cannot return to work after seven days, you might be eligible for temporary total disability benefits. These benefits can be as much as 70 percent of your weekly pay.

In order to determine if you are eligible for temporary total disability benefits, it is important to seek out the counsel of an experienced workers' compensation lawyer. Our attorneys can help answer your questions, gather evidence for your case and negotiate with your employers and their insurer.

It is important to understand that temporary total disability benefits will stop when you are able to return to work or when you have reached your maximum medical improvement (MMI). MMI is reached when medical treatment can no longer improve your injuries. At this time, if you have a partial or total disability, our attorneys can help you obtain permanent disability award.
