Let’s first talk about yours and your attorney’s point of view on your Idaho worker’s compensation case. You and your Idaho worker’s compensation attorney, want the best possible outcome for your case. This means having good health care so you can recover from your injury and have all your medical bills paid, have your wage loss covered, your rating impairment paid, and your disability paid resulting from a work related injury. It isn’t about trying to get more money and sticking it to your employer. It is all about getting honest and fair compensation that you are entitled to.
The next point of view is your employer’s insurance company. They are there to protect the employer and pay out the compensation to you. They want to see the dollar amount low. They don’t want to pay out large sums. They want to save money where ever they can.
Understanding these two points of view can help you understand more about your Idaho worker’s compensation case. The legal system can sometimes be slow because you have the competing points of view. This is why your case can take so long. This is why you have to see multiple experts. This is why it seems like you have answer the same questions over and over again.
