Workers Compensation refers to benefits that cover an employee in the event of a work related illness or accident. These benefits cover the employee in the event they are not able to work for an extended period of time.

Charlie Crist, governor of the State of Florida, signed a new workers' compensation bill into law which puts a cap of $1,500.00 on the attorneys' fees that an injured worker can pay their lawyer on a workers' compensation claim.

Unfortunately, this unfair law has the effect of limiting an injured employee's access to legal representation.

A friend of mine has written an in-depth article on workers compensation law which I think is beneficial to share with you.

Sustaining an injury due to a car accident, slip and fall, defective product, or any other situation can be very difficult both emotionally and financially. You may miss work and have mounting medical bills. You may require surgery. It is important that you understand that if you suffer an injury due to someone else's negligent act, you may be able to recover money for medical bills, rehabilitative or ongoing care, emotional pain and suffering, lost wages, lost earning capacity, physical disability, disfigurement, permanent scars, loss of enjoyment, loss of love and affection, mental disability, property damage, and punitive damage.
