What Workers’ Compensation Benefits Can I Receive?
Workers’ compensation is a no-fault insurance system, which means that you are eligible to get its benefits even if your workplace accident happened due to your mistake. This system is good for putting your worries at ease if you know that you did something wrong that led to your injury. However, you might still be expected to show that your accident was work-related to get the benefits you need to recover.
In California, five important benefits from workers’ compensation include:
- Medical care: You should be able to receive all medical treatments required without paying anything yourself, including smaller fees like co-pays and prescription costs.
- Temporary disability: You can get temporary total disability (TTD) benefits equal to 66.67% of your average pre-injury wages each week if you cannot return to work for weeks or months.
- Permanent disability: Permanent disability benefits become available if you can never fully recover. The amount paid to you is mostly based on the severity of your impairment.
- Life pension: You might be eligible to receive life pension payments through workers’ comp if your disability rating is between 70% and 99%.
- Vocational rehabilitation: If you cannot return to your previous job, then you can be retrained to start a new position at your employer or a new career entirely.
Filing an Appeal
Has your workers’ compensation claim already been filed and denied? Do not worry just yet. You could still have a chance to challenge the denial and file an appeal.
With our help, you can start the appeals process the easy way. We will take your case over, investigate the reasoning behind the denial, and see if it is incorrect. If so, then we can challenge it. In many cases, we have been able to secure the benefits owed to our clients without needing to go through the entire appeals process, which can be lengthy and complicated. Just seeing our name on the challenge letter and reading our argument against the denial is often enough to convince an insurance company to do the right thing.

Workers’ Compensation FAQ
Do independent contractors get workers’ compensation in California?
No, most independent contractors are not covered by workers’ compensation insurance that is provided by their employer. The law does not require most employers to offer this sort of employment benefit to independent contractors. To get workers’ comp as an independent contractor, you will usually have to purchase a policy on your own.
What is the California 90-day rule for workers’ compensation?
After you inform your employer about your workplace accident, they need to tell the insurance company as soon as possible, usually within the same workday. Then, the claim administrator has 90 days to accept or deny your claim, with medical benefits being provided throughout that time. If there is no response within 90 days, then your claim ends in your favor by default.
Is workman’s comp the same as workers’ compensation?
Yes, workman’s compensation is the same as workers’ compensation in all practical applications. You might see the terms exchanged for one another here and there, but they are essentially identical.
