General information regarding workers compensation claims:
Can you file a claim for workmans comp and social security disability benefits simultaneously? Yes, the two benefit systems are completely separate and distinct (ssd is a standardized federal program while workers compensation laws may differ state to state). However, an individual seeking both types of benefits may gain advantage from the input of a workers compensation attorney since "timing issues" (as regards an ssd claim) can, in some cases, affect a workman's comp claim. A person seeking benefits may decide to choose an attorney who can handle both types of claims, though very often, attorneys will handle only one or the other; that is, either social security disability cases or workers compensation cases exclusively. Of course, obtaining distinct representation on both types of claims may be a good idea since a claimant, ideally, should be represented by a specialist as opposed to someone who simply "dabbles" in various areas of practice. |
