WORKERS’ COMPENSATION LITIGATION
REPRESENTATION OF INJURED WORKERS
|
Statute of Limitations
Injured workers must be cognizant of the statute
of limitations throughout the life of their case.
Unless specific legal requirements are met, an
injured worker’s entitlement to ongoing benefits and
medical treatment can be forever barred if the
injured worker fails to comply with the statute of
limitations. The law pertaining to the statute of
limitations may vary depending upon the date of
accident, the last payment of indemnity benefits or
the last receipt of authorized medical treatment.
From the inception of the case, Mr. Fee and Mr.
Chait counsel their clients on the statute of
limitations and the impact that same may have on the
right to ongoing benefits and medical treatment.
They strongly encourage their clients to communicate
with their office and provide supporting
documentation to them on a regular basis. Because of
the importance of maintaining ongoing entitlement
and eligibility for indemnity benefits and medical
treatment, as well as avoiding the pitfalls of a
statute of limitations defense, Mr. Fee and Mr.
Chait strongly recommend the hiring of a competent
and experienced attorney to represent and protect
your interests.
