California Disability Law
California Disability Law can be a very confusing, exhausting, and very time-consuming process that you don’t have to handle on your own.
An Attorney can fight by your side while you figure out this tiring process and get the compensation you deserve. In fact, many people who might qualify for some kind of disability benefits don’t know they should apply until it’s often too late. And while disability law may be complicated, ringing up the best lawyer for the job is something quick and easy you can do to get the process started.
If you call a law firm like Gold Country Workers’ Comp Center, you are sure to have a team of excellent attorneys working diligently towards getting you the benefits you deserve. If your impairments happened due to a work-related incident, you can be assisted in filing and pursuing a Workers’ Comp claim. It isn’t only up to the employer’s insurance coverage whether or not you will receive compensation and how much that is, there might be cases where you can receive penalties for unreasonably delayed benefits, failure to adequately investigate a claim or be awarded additional compensation for discrimination for having filed a claim or for willfully causing a serious injury. There are basically two ways to view this issue: If your injury was due to someone else’s negligence, you probably can to sue in civil court, a slow and tedious forum for recovering damages, and perhaps larger awards to compensate you for your injuries, but you cannot sue your employer or co-employee for civil damages. Workers’ Compensation on the other hand provides a relatively speedy and informal way of getting medical care and some compensation for your lost wages and long-term impact of your injury.
And if these medical impairments continue to worsen, especially if you’ve had to leave work altogether and have no idea when you’ll be going back, it might be time to file a State Disability claim and/or a Social Security Disability claim. You might even be able to pursue both the Workers’ Comp claim and State Disability and SSD claims at once, but no case is exactly the same as any other. Having an experienced attorney there to guide you through either or both of these kinds of claims is the kind of guidance you need in order to know where your time is better spent. Sometimes it’s worth pursuing what you can as soon as possible, and other times something could be deterring you from getting something else.
Disability law is tricky, and depending on which institution you’re dealing with, many people will try giving you either false information or making you drown in the paperwork that will leave you feeling exhausted and defeated. Having a disability law firm on your side also means that your claims gain that much more validity and credit, since the institutions you’re going against will understand that an attorney won’t spend their time and money on a case they can’t win.
