This glossary clarifies common terms you may encounter while pursuing a workplace or catastrophic injury claim, helping you stay informed.
Liability means who is legally responsible for your injuries and who may be required to compensate you for damages.
Damages refer to money awarded to compensate for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from the injury.
A statute of limitations sets the deadline for filing a claim; missing it can bar your case unless exceptions apply.
Liens and insurance provisions can affect the recovery you receive and require careful navigation to maximize what you ultimately collect.
Options may include workers’ compensation, employer’s liability claims, third‑party personal injury actions, or civil lawsuits; each has different procedures, timelines, and potential outcomes.
