Atlanta, Georgia Workers' Comp Attorneys – Injuries and Returning to Work
When you have experienced an injury at work, you likely have a lot of concerns going through your mind. In addition to the concern about how you'll pay your medical bills and whether you'll be able to recover fully, you may also be worried about whether you will ever be able to go to back to work.
Many workplace injuries can fundamentally change your ability to perform your job, making it difficult or impossible to go back to the position you had before. This is almost always true of catastrophic injuries, and severe spinal cord injuries, but it can also be true of other types of injuries as well. For instance, if your job requires you to be in good physical shape and to lift or carry things, then neck and back, hip injuries or shoulder injuries can all make returning to work impossible. If your job requires you to be on the computer all day, then carpal tunnel can mean the end to your career.
In any case where you have suffered a work injury that makes it difficult or impossible to go back to your old job, it is important to speak with an Atlanta, Georgia Workers' Comp Attorney to learn how to receive disability benefits that will provide you with the income you need.

What if You Cannot Go Back to Your Job after an Atlanta, Georgia Workplace Accident?
If you are not able to go back to your job for a limited period of time, then you may receive temporary disability benefits under workers' compensation. Disability benefits can generally last for up to 400 weeks. However, if you have suffered a catastrophic injury and are never going to be able to go back to work, then you may receive lifetime disability benefits.
The disability benefits you are eligible for after a work injury may be for total disability or for partial disability:
- Total disability benefits are available if you can't work or make money at all. They are equal to 2/3 of your prior weekly wage, up to a maximum of $500/week.
- Partial disability benefits if you can do some work but not the job you had prior. These are equal to a percentage of the amount of income that you lost (i.e. the difference between your prior wages and current earning potential).
An Atlanta, Georgia Workers' Comp Attorney can help you to obtain both total disability or partial disability benefits on a temporary or permanent basis, depending on your condition and the advice of your doctor.
