After MMI: Just what the #$%& is an Impairment Rating!?!?

[@TheJohndeere466]

I am in Ohio and I know it could possibly be different but I was injured at work and had a finger amputated. I guess I will receive a scheduled loss award but will I also get an impairment award?

Hi James - I believe so (understanding it's not Colorado). You might also be eligible for a disfigurement benefit too. I would hope that you can find an attorney there to do at least a free consultation. We do them all the time.

Your video is very interesting & appreciated I'm residing in Maryland I have an attorney due to a torn rotator cuff on the job injury just had surgery etc. What advice can you can give me related to the topic

[@KaplanMorrellLaw]

While the laws can be similar between the States - they are different enough that I wouldn't be able to advise you on Maryland Law. Just make sure your attorney primarily does Workers Compensation (70% of the case load) and has 5 plus year of experience.

Can you settle after mmi or do you have to go back to work

[@KaplanMorrellLaw]

Good Day! Thank you for watching our channel and our videos. In Colorado you can settle at any time.
