Job sites, specifically construction sites, are a very dangerous place to work. Even if you take proper safety precautions, you could find yourself involved in a serious accident. Under Massachusetts law, you could be eligible for workers’ comp benefits if you have suffered a disability as a result of an accident. Our experienced Lowell workers’ comp attorneys can help you recover loss of function compensation.

Loss of Function Compensation | Benefits

I got a call the other day and they asked a question about whether or not scarring and loss of function was covered under Massachusetts workers’ comp. In fact, it is. It’s a specific benefit. Scarring is limited to your hands, neck, or face; disfigurement is not. Loss of function is basically calculated by a book with sets of amounts that they give you. Contact a workers’ compensation attorney to determine if, in fact, you’re entitled to any of those benefits.

Loss of Function Compensation | Temporary Partial Disability

I have a client I was talking with the other day. He was able to go back to some form of work, but not earn what he was earning before, so the insurance company agreed to put him on partial disability. In Massachusetts, you’re entitled to 60% of the difference between what you’re able to make after the injury and what your average weekly wage was prior to the injury. That benefit can run for up to five years.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

I’ve worked with Attorney Young on several cases and found him to be extremely knowledgeable, effective, and compassionate toward clients.

Attorney Jeffrey Young and his team have been incredible throughout my workmans comp claim. Jeff achieved the best possible outcome for me and I cannot express how appreciative I am. My emails and calls were answered, all my concerns were taken care of. I felt like someone was on my side, standing up for me and against a really tough insurance company. I highly recommend this firm for any workers comp and personal injury. Very professional, caring and Jeff is dedicated to helping people. I would give this law firm 10 stars but only allowed 5.

I was in need of professional legal assistance with a workmen’s compensation situation. Attorney Jeffrey Young was highly recommended to me. Jeff and his staff were extremely patient, respectful and knowledgeable. They handled my case expediently and thoroughly. Jeff’s rapport with me, my family and the courts were way beyond my expectations! If I’m ever in need of council again, I’ll call Attorney Young!
