At Westmoreland, Patterson, Moseley & Hinson, L.L.P., we handle all aspects of workers’ compensation claims, standing by our clients throughout the entire process. Over the past 50 years, our attorneys have represented hundreds of injured workers with their workers’ compensation claims. From evaluating your claim to filing your paperwork to attending hearings on your behalf, we focus on your best interest and the best outcome.
Are You Eligible For Other Benefits Besides Work Comp?
We also understand that our clients in need of workers’ compensation benefits may be collecting other forms of compensation as well. Our job is not only to maintain an awareness of the income they are receiving, but also to educate our clients on the impact it will have in reducing their workers’ compensation.
Common benefits that run concurrently with an injured worker receiving workers’ compensation include:
- Unemployment compensation
- Severance
- Pension
- Social Security Disability (SSD)
- Social Security retirement
- Medicare
Coordinating benefits requires decisions based upon the impact on other benefits and how that compensation affects leverage in a lump-sum settlement. You need a seasoned workers’ compensation attorney at your side with both experience in coordination of benefits and knowledge of Georgia statutes.
