Filing an Ohio BWC C240 settlement application is simple. Figuring out what your claim settlement value should be is not. In order to settle your Ohio BWC claim, it is important to contact a Board Certified Ohio Workers’ Compensation Specialist attorney. Don’t try to settle your claim yourself, the BWC will try to “short change” your settlement amount. Read on…….
And make sure that you have obtained your Permanent Partial Disability award before you settle your claim. There’s a lot that goes into the analysis of claim settlement, the amount of money the BWC has paid for compensation, medical, prescription, potential for future awards, the reserves set in the claim, etc. Something that a person with no experience just can’t calculate.
Call a Board Certified Ohio BWC Specialist Attorney before you settle your claim. There may be many additional benefits available prior to closing out the claim for a lump sum settlement.
