What Is a Lump Sum Settlement?
You are not obligated to give up your right to medical benefits. A lump sum settlement is when you are paid a certain sum from your employer in exchange for ending all future medical benefits claims and wage loss benefits. This is called a compromise and release agreement.
An insurer likes to close out cases, but is it in your best interest to waive your rights to future wage loss and future medical treatment? If you do not have a lawyer representing your rights, the offer that the insurer makes for you may be very low, but how will you know? It is important for you to have legal counsel who cares about your situation and is engaged in protecting your rights to the full and fair lump sum settlement under workers' compensation law.
Mr. Jaffe has assisted clients who have been permanently unable to perform their former jobs because of serious injuries obtain lump sum settlements to close out their workers' compensation claim and then use that sum of money to:
- Open a home painting business
- Open up a restaurant
- Open other small businesses or learn a new trade
- Return to school for retraining
- Pay off mortgages and bills
