Legal Answers
8 Questions Answered
- Q. Question about Florida Workers Compensation Lawyer MSA settlement
- A: Yes. The law allows an attorney to be paid a percentage of any benefits secured and an MSA is a benefit secured for, and on behalf of, the injured worker.
- Q. Does each injured body part in a FL work comp have it's own 1-year statute of limitation for medical care?
- A: The statute of limitations applies to the whole claim.
- Q. Did my lawyer cheat me ?
- A: Florida workers compensation law does not provide for pain and suffering. Settlement of a workers compensation matter is optional so neither party can be forced to settle. You indicated that your case was initially denied but then accepted after you hired a lawyer and she filed petitions on your behalf. I have very limited knowledge of your case but it seems like your lawyer is representing you appropriately.
