Can I settle my claim instead of going to court?
Yes. You can resolve your Workers’ Compensation claim by settlement
– called a Compromise and Release – but only if both sides agree
to the terms. If both sides do not agree on the amount or other terms there
is no settlement. Your employer’s insurer cannot force you to take
less than you are willing to take; and you cannot force the insurance company
to give more than it is willing to give. Even if all sides agree, a Workers’
Compensation judge must still approve the settlement after making sure that
you understand the legal significance of it. |
