When you are unable to work because of an injury that occurred on the job, you have a reasonable expectation that your medical and financial needs that resulted from that injury will be adequately addressed. This may not be the case if you suffered a permanent partial disability after March 3, 2007.
In 2007 the laws governing workers' compensation benefits for those who have suffered a permanent partial disability were changed. Prior to that change, workers who suffered a permanent partial disability were eligible for cash benefits for the rest of their life.
Since the reform of workers' compensation laws that occurred in 2007 there is a cap on all claims for permanent partial disability. The cap limits the number of weeks that benefits may be received based on the percentage loss of wage earning capacity.
At Olinsky Law Group, our Syracuse benefits limits attorneys know how important workers' compensation benefits can be to those who have suffered an injury that resulted in a permanent partial disability. We can offer disabled workers the exceptional representation that can help you secure the maximum benefits for your injury.
