Why do I need a Lawyer? |
|
 |
Navigating through the legal system without a lawyer is like
trying to perform a medical operation on yourself. It is not a
good idea and never recommended.

Get Medical Treatment

for treatment even if you do not have medical Insurance in most
cases. Obtaining immediate medical treatment for your injuries
is often times, the difference between needless suffering, and a
timely recovery from your injuries. We are here for you now!

Loss of Income
-
Off Work
You must not work if
the doctor puts you on disability. Have the doctor provide
you with an "Off Work Order" to give to your employer. Make
sure your employer understands that the reason you are
unable to work is due to the accident. If the doctor
releases you to return to work, and you think you should not
return, at least try to work, then, return to the doctor
stating you are unable to work.
-
Loss of Business
Self-employed clients
should hire someone to replace them while they are disabled.
The loss is the cost of the replacement. Otherwise, you must
show by records a reduction in your gross income due to your
inability to do your work. Past tax records, accountant's
statements and current profit/loss forms are useful. It is
helpful for you to document your loss of income as you lose
the income, rather than waiting until after you return to
work.
-
Loss of Wages
If you were off work
at the time of the accident and could have returned to work
if the accident would not have happened, you may be entitled
to compensation for loss of income, or earning capacity. If
you wish to claim loss of wages, or earning capacity, make
sure your doctor provides you with an "Off Work Order" and a
"Return to Work Order" to show the times you could not work.
You must also show you were employed, or could have been
employed had it not been for the injury.
-
Money to Live On
You may be entitled to
disability benefits through your work. You may also be
entitled to State Disability Insurance to help you through
your disability period. Some of your payments may be paid by
insurance while you are disabled. You may possibly be able
to borrow money from relatives or friends to help you
through your period of disability. Loss of income is a
hardship. However, you should not work while the doctor says
you are disabled.
