The workers' compensation law has many provisions dealing with the amount of benefits an injured worker is to receive and some of those provisions have become quite complex. As a result, there frequently is a dispute as to the full amount of benefits to which an injured worker is entitled and the law allows for an adversarial system to resolve those disputes. Ultimately, if those disputes cannot be settled, they are decided by a judge. Since the adjuster who has the responsibility to minimize what the insurance company is legally obligated to pay may voluntarily pay substantially less in benefits than are due as determined by a judge. If you are not sure of whether you are receiving the full benefits authorized by the workers' compensation laws, then you should consult with an attorney experienced in handling workers' compensation matters about those benefits. If you have questions about the benefits you are entitled to under Tennessee law, having trouble getting your employer or the worker’s compensation insurance company to return your calls, or have concern that you are not getting benefits you are entitled to, please call Ralph Brown and Associates today for a free consultation today.
