If you were injured at work, you may have heard that workers’ compensation will cover your needs. You may have also heard that you cannot sue for workplace injuries, and that you have to use workers’ compensation to seek medical coverage and lost wages for your injury. The Philadelphia workers’ compensation lawyers at Schmidt, Kirifides, and Rassias explain what you need to know about Pennsylvania’s workers’ compensation system, and when you are required to seek WC coverage instead of suing in court.

How Does an Obligation to Pay Child Support Impact Someoneâs Right to Workersâ Compensation Benefits? Act 109 of 2006 became effective on September 5, 2006. Many practitioners in the field of workersâ compensation incorrectly âœassumeâ that this was part of an amendment to the PA WC Act. In reality, it is an amendment to the PA Domestic Relations Code but has a direct impact on workerâs compensation. It affects not only the injured worker, and the benefits they are entitled to receive, but also imposes direct duties on counsel for both parties, the Judge, and the insurance company.
