How Much Can I Collect in Workers Compensation Benefits?

The amount you can collect for a health care accident depends on many factors. The full compensation you recover should reflect the severity and extent of your injury as well as how long you will be away from work. However, another important factor is whether you can file a lawsuit for all of your personal injury damages, or whether you will be limited to the lesser amounts available under Texas workers compensation laws.

Workers comp usually only covers lost income and medical expenses. For the most serious injuries, you receive an impairment rating that guarantees three weeks’ salary for each percentage point of impairment. For example, if you are found to have 10 percent impairment, you get 30 weeks of pay.

As your Austin workers compensation attorney, our law firm works to make sure that you collect as much as you can from all available sources. While we are helping you with your workers compensation claim, we will investigate the possibility of legal action for personal injury damages against the parties responsible for your accident. Although every case is different, the recovery for a personal injury claim is usually greater than a workers compensation case. In some cases, we can help you get both.
