Will my worker's comp settlement be lowered if I'm on public aid?

Grady B Martin
Answered by attorney Grady B Martin (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at The Grady B. Martin Law Office
From the limited details you provide, it is unlikely that you settlement will be reduced due to your receiving food stamps and medical. Other types of benefits such as unemployment and social security could have an impact on your workers' comp benefits. It's unclear how and why you decided to settle your workers' comp claim. Hopefully you consulted with an attorney before accepting the settlement. Good luck to you.

Can I sue him for something other than medical bills and my car like emotional distress?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brett Edward Rosenthal (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Graves Law Offices
Yes, you were injured b/c you say you were "very sore" and that in and of itself, coupled with a trip to the ER w/ x-rays is compensable. In addition, based on the adverse driver being drunk you are entitled to punitive damages, the purpose of which is deter and punish conduct that is not acceptable. Given the nature of your injuries, depending on whether you still have residuals or not, but if not you are entitled to recover your medical bills and any lost wages (special damages) and general damages (pain, suffering and inconvenience) as well as punitive damages. Now, assuming the at fault party had insurance, which the traffic collision report should indicate that you can recover the first two from them and many times they will pay some premium on the first two to protect their insured from a trial where he would be exposed to the risk of punitive damages, which insurance does not cover. If he did not have insurance, you then must pursue your uninsured motorist coverage on your own policy.

How much will my claim be worth?

David B. Rechtman
Answered by attorney David B. Rechtman (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Rechtman & Spevak
You have a very good case. The fact that the Defendant was driving drunk could entitle you to payment of additional damages. Unfortunately a lawyer is going to require a lot more information in order to properly evaluate your claim. One important thing you have left out is information about your injuries & treatment. It is also critical in a good case such as yours for a lawyer to properly investigate what insurance policies and limits may be applicable to your case. (A case may be theoretically worth a lot, but you may not be able to obtain its worth if there is not adequate insurance.) The best & quickest way to get what you are looking for is to have a consultation with a good lawyer specialist. Our law firm (& others) conduct this consultation by phone or in person. It is free and there is no obligation to use us as your lawyer. Also be aware that an evaluation is an informed estimate. (The more information the lawyer has, the better he is able to estimate.) Estimates can vary widely from lawyer to lawyer (& some lawyers may give high numbers in order to have the injured potential client hire them).
