Did insurance send a Compromise & Release to you to settle your case? Watch for these issues.

This video reviews the Compromise and Release (C&R) often used to settle workers’ comp cases. If you are an injured worker with a California injury, and don’t have an attorney, this video is intended to help provide an overview of workers’ compensation topics so you can better represent yourself. Once the injured worker and insurance company (or their attorney) come to an agreement, the insurance will usually draft the settlement documents to send to the injured employee. Assuming an agreement is reached to close out all issues, a C&R will be drafted. This option generally provides for a lump sum payment, and will close out the injured worker’s future medical care and right to reopen. This video reviews some of the common issues that come up, and watch to what for when reviewing a C&R. Jeremy Lusk is a certified specialist in workers’ compensation with almost two decades of experience, and previously served as a Judge at the Fresno District Office of the WCAB. He has worked out of Fresno, but appeared at numerous Boards to represent both injured workers and employers/carriers. No attorney/client relationship is created or implied by this video. This video is not offering legal advice as to what you should, or should not, do in your workers’ compensation case, but rather offers education/information as to the California workers’ compensation system for unrepresented workers so they can better represent themselves and make more informed decisions.
