A man from Orange, MA recently obtained a $125,000 workers’ compensation lump sum settlement for his work-related injury. After sustaining an upper extremity injury by heavy equipment on the job, our client underwent several surgeries which prevented him from working. Beforehand, he contacted our office so we could help him begin the workers’ compensation process. Our firm maintained joint responsibility with a law firm specializing in workers’ compensation law, and they helped our client receive the lump sum settlement he deserved.
Lump Sum Settlement
Lump sum settlements are only available to workers who sustained serious injuries and are unable to return to their job. These settlements must be approved by the Massachusetts Workers’ Compensation Court. In addition, you will have to give up your right to all future workers’ compensation benefits. This settlement amount can be paid in a single lump sum, or individuals can opt for a structured settlement. An experienced workers’ compensation attorney can discuss which option is best for you.
