Legal Answers
157 Questions Answered
- Q. Is it standard for insurance to require waivers for future claims in settlement offers?
- A: Yes. It is standard to require a signed release when settling a claim. That is their incentive to offer you money.
Once you sign it, you no longer have any right to pursue their insured with a lawsuit.
You should have consulted with and retained an attorney quickly. They could have assisted with referrals and increased your chances for a better settlement.
If attorneys are declining your case, it may be because you waited too long and devalued your claim. You can always seek other opinions.
- Q. I just received an impairment rating. But I signed a stipulation 3 months ago
- A: It depends what you stipulated to.
Was it a full and final settlement of all claims, past and future, or just a claim pending on the hearing docket?
- Q. Impact of worker's comp stipulation on future impairment benefits?
- A: I would need to review what you signed to answer the question.
If it just resolved a pending claim for benefits and is not a full and final settlement of all claims, it should not preclude additional benefits, including an award for an impairment rating.
