How Two Claims Can Maximize Your Recovery
The largest recoveries for injured workers often come from pursuing two claims at once. Here is how the structure works.
1. The Workers' Compensation Claim
Pennsylvania workers' compensation covers your work-related brain injury regardless of who was at fault, paying for medical care and a portion of lost wages. Michael Cardamone is a Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist who handles this claim directly.
2. The Third-Party Personal Injury Claim
When a party other than your employer — an equipment manufacturer, a contractor, or a negligent driver — contributed to your injury, you may also have a separate personal injury claim. We work with our heavyweight Personal Injury colleagues to pursue this claim for pain and suffering and full wage loss.
What Determines the Value of a Brain Injury Case
Severity & Permanence of the TBI
Mild concussions resolve differently than severe, permanent traumatic brain injuries. Lasting cognitive, memory, and behavioral effects increase the value of a claim.
Impact on Earning Capacity
Workers’ compensation pays a portion of lost wages, and a third-party claim can recover the full wage loss when someone other than your employer was at fault.
Medical Treatment & Future Care
Ongoing therapy, cognitive rehabilitation, and future medical needs are documented and factored into the full value of a brain injury case.
Liability & the Two-Claim Structure
When a third party contributed to the injury, the combination of a workers’ comp claim and a separate personal injury claim can substantially increase total recovery.
