Medical expenses are relatively straightforward, and your employer\u2019s insurance will help to ensure you receive full compensation for all immediate and future medical expenses you face after your injury. However, disability benefits are more variable and may be awarded on a partial or total basis.<\/p><p>Partial disability benefits are reserved for claimants who are still able to work after their injuries but have suffered diminished earning capacity because of their injuries. If you can only manage light duty and\/or lower-paying work than what you did prior to your injury, you are likely to qualify for partial disability benefits. You will need to report your earnings each week and provide updates on your recovery to maintain eligibility to receive these benefits. For most claimants who qualify for partial disability benefits, this will make up the difference between what they earned previously and what they are able to earn after their injury.<\/p><p>Total disability benefits are appropriate for claimants who are completely unable to work until they recover from their injuries. These benefits are generally paid at a rate of two-thirds of the claimant\u2019s average weekly wages for the year prior to their injury. For example, if you earned roughly $1,200 per week before your injury, you should receive about $800 per week in disability benefits until you are able to return to work.<\/p><p>Most workers\u2019 compensation claimants are eligible to continue receiving weekly disability benefits for up to 104 weeks, but this can be extended to 240 weeks in certain cases, and for certain injuries, if the claimant suffered a severe injury that demands more extensive recovery time. In addition, in the event you have suffered a catastrophic injury resulting in permanent disability, you could qualify for permanent disability benefits. However, most insurance companies will attempt to override the need for extensive ongoing benefits arrangements by offering large lump sum settlement offers.<\/p><p>Your San Diego workers\u2019 compensation attorney will be invaluable for maximizing the results of your claim. They can help you address any unexpected complications with the insurance carrier and ensure they handle your claim in good faith. In addition, if you experience any problems with your benefits or believe that you qualify for more expansive recovery than your claim provides, your workers\u2019 compensation attorney in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/San_Diego\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Diego, CA<\/a>\u00a0can help you determine the best next steps to take to resolve these matters<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-02c714f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"02c714f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Exploring Further Recovery Outside of Workers\u2019 Compensation Benefits\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d3cc1e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d3cc1e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If your employer has workers\u2019 compensation insurance as required by state law and they do not interfere with your claim in any way, you probably cannot<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eeoc.gov\/filing-lawsuit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> file a civil suit against your employer<\/a> in response to your work injury. However, if your employer injured you intentionally in any way, or if you were injured because of a safety issue in your workplace that your employer was aware of but neglected to address, you may have grounds for a civil action.<\/p><p>It\u2019s also possible to have grounds for a personal injury claim against a third party. For example, if someone outside of your work injured you while you were working, you could still file a workers\u2019 compensation claim to recover medical expenses and a portion of your lost income. However, you would have the right to file a personal injury claim against a third party to request compensation for the losses that workers\u2019 compensation insurance won\u2019t cover.<\/p><p>In a personal injury claim against a third party or a civil suit against your employer, you have the right to seek recompense for any losses not covered by workers\u2019 compensation insurance. For example, if your claim only yields compensation for about two-thirds of your missing income after your injury, you could seek the remainder in your civil suit. Additionally, you also have the right to claim pain and suffering compensation to reflect the severity of your injury and the long-term medical complications it is likely to cause.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-20617ea elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"20617ea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">COMPARATIVE FAULT IN WORK INJURY CASES<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4fffbf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c4fffbf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>One of the most common issues of concern for injured workers in San Diego is whether they still qualify for workers\u2019 compensation benefits if they caused their own injury. The state uses a no-fault system for workers\u2019 compensation cases, meaning it is possible for you to have caused your own injury at work and still qualify for benefits. However, there are some important exceptions to consider.<\/p><p>You could be disqualified from workers\u2019 compensation benefits if you caused your own injury through an illegal act in your workplace, such as performing your job duties under the influence of alcohol or drugs. You could also be ineligible if you caused your injury through an intentional workplace safety violation. As long as you caused your own injury through an honest mistake made in good faith, it will not prevent you from filing a workers\u2019 compensation claim.<\/p><p>Fault will, however, significantly impact any third-party personal injury claim you attempt to file. California operates on a pure comparative fault rule in such cases. This means that if a plaintiff bears any measure of fault for causing their claimed damages, they lose a percentage of their final case award equal to their percentage of fault. If you have any concerns about bearing liability for your work injury, it is vital to <strong>consult a San Diego workers\u2019 compensation lawyer.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-61eb607 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"61eb607\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What to Expect From Your San Diego Workers\u2019 Compensation Attorney<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63c928c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"63c928c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Legal representation you can trust is an invaluable asset no matter what you believe your claim is likely to entail.

However, if your claim is denied for any reason, or if you have grounds for further legal recourse outside of the workers\u2019 compensation system, it will take longer to resolve these issues. Your <a href=\"https:\/\/dieferlaw.com\/blog\/how-long-can-you-be-on-workers-comp-in-california\/\">San Diego workers\u2019 compensation lawyer can provide an estimate of how long your recovery efforts<\/a> are likely to take.<\/p><h3>Q: Can I Still Receive Workers\u2019 Compensation Benefits if I Caused My Own Injury?<\/h3><p><strong>A:<\/strong> Causing your own work injury does not immediately disqualify you from receiving workers\u2019 compensation benefits, but only if you injured yourself through an honest mistake or act of simple negligence. If you intentionally disregarded a workplace safety rule, injured yourself while working under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or violated a workplace safety regulation, these factors could lead to the denial of benefits.<\/p><h3>Q: How Much Can I Recover in Workers\u2019 Compensation Benefits?<\/h3><p><strong>A:<\/strong> A successful workers\u2019 compensation claim should cover all the medical care you require to reach maximum recovery from your injury, and you should also receive appropriate weekly disability benefits until you are able to return to work. <strong>Your San Diego workers\u2019 compensation attorney can help<\/strong> you determine whether you have grounds to seek further recovery through a personal injury claim against a third party or civil suit against your employer that could enhance your final recovery substantially.<\/p><h3>Q: Is Hiring a San Diego Workers\u2019 Compensation Attorney Really Necessary?<\/h3><p><strong>A:<\/strong> You have the right to file your claim without hiring legal representation, but you face several significant risks in doing so. You could encounter problems with your claim you cannot resolve on your own, and you could miss valuable opportunities for additional recovery that an attorney could have identified on your behalf. It is always worth investing in legal counsel you can trust if you want to maximize the results of your recovery efforts after a work injury.<\/p><h3>Q: How Much Does a San Diego Workers\u2019 Compensation Attorney Charge Their Client?<\/h3><p><strong>A:<\/strong> It\u2019s understandable to be worried about legal expenses when you are already struggling with the financial effects of your injury.
