Settlement Attorneys in San Mateo

Settlement of workers’ compensation cases in California can be very complicated. Most settlements are paid over time and provide for lifetime medical care for the injuries suffered in the work accident. In order to receive a lump sum that totally settles all of the workers’ rights, both the injured worker and the insurance carrier or self-insured employer must agree to this type of settlement.
