Calculation of Award
Workers’ compensation settlements must be approved by a workers’ compensation judge.
The award that you receive through workers’ compensation is calculated based upon a complex formula. The team at Mark | Lavigne, LLC is here to help you understand the calculation of your award.
In the state of New Jersey, a workers’ compensation claim is calculated based upon a schedule of permanency, which is outlined in the workers’ compensation statute. Your body part has a set value, and based upon that set value, you are entitled to a monetary award.
The calculation of the award is often complex, but it is expressly outlined within the schedule of disability. Mark | Lavigne, LLC offers free consultations and is here to help you understand how to calculate your award. Contact us online or call us at 908-460-8996 today for your free consultation.
