Claiming workers’ compensation in any scenario can be tricky. Even with the best attorneys by your side, like our workers’ compensation attorneys at Aiello Law Group, you will face bias medical practitioners, greedy insurance companies, and a whole spectrum of other people who’s entire job is to undermine your claims and help your employer avoid paying you as much money as possible, going so far as to even insist you’re not being honest about your injuries and finding ways to keep benefits you need just beyond your reach. It can be so bad, in fact, that you might find yourself thinking about settling just to avoid the hassle, but even that can leave you with more questions.
What Are Michigan Workers’ Comp Settlement Rates Based On?
Although compensation for your personal pain and suffering cannot be included in your workers’ compensation settlement, your insurance company will need to take into account all of your current and future lost income, necessary medical procedures and treatments, and any required vocational rehabilitation you might need to help your return to the workforce if able. Once everything is added together, that figure will be your approximate settlement amount. Of course, every injured worker is different, which means every workers’ compensation settlement is going to be as unique as the case in question.
How Much Is The Average Workers’ Comp Settlement Amount?
There is an average settlement amount injured workers can expect to receive. According to figures published by the Workers’ Disability Compensation Agency, the average workers’ compensation settlement amount in Michigan for 2020 was $59,235.42, which may not seem like a lot when you consider how far those funds are meant to go. Then again, when you think about all the frustrations of fighting for basic benefits month to month, a tax-free settlement that can be used on anything you need doesn’t sound so bad.
