Pennsylvania Workers Compensation Settlements

What's the process?

The goal of a workers compensation claim is a fair and equitable settlement for our clients who have experienced an injury at their place of employment. However, achieving this goal can be frustrating and time-consuming for an injured person to tackle by themselves. The Pennsylvania workers comp firm Larry Pitt & Associates will ease this frustration by working with you, understanding and presenting your case, and then letting us negotiate on your behalf a settlement that will provide for your future.

Compromise and Release Settlement, called a compromise and release (C&R), is vital in any workers compensation case. A settlement permanently ends the obligations of the insurance carrier to pay any wage-loss benefits, which may include medical benefits. Usually the insurance carrier will try to approach the injured party to agree to a lump sum settlement. This means that the insurance carrier has to only pay one sizable payment, which in many cases underestimates the value of the injured party. By having a lawyer that is knowledgeable in workers compensation settlement tactics, the injured party has good chance of receiving the true value of the case. Larry Pitt has experience working in the insurance field before becoming a workers comp attorney. Not every workers comp attorney can say that.

Knowing the value of a case and helping their clients receive fair and appropriate monetary compensation is another goal of Larry Pitt & Associates. The lawyers and staff at our law firm want to help you recover from your work related injuries. We want to get to a desired end result, which is a fair and just settlement for your Philadelphia workers comp injury case. This sense of workers rights moves us to act in the best interest of our client. Although we can sometimes predict an outcome to what your settlement may be, each case is handled on a case by case basis by our attorneys and conferenced among our legal team.
