Kentucky law requires injured workers to report their injury as soon as practicable and file a formal workers compensation claim within two years of the injury or the last voluntary payment of benefits. While the waiting week may delay some payments, it does not pause or extend these deadlines.
The Employers First Report of Injury or Illness provides information on the claimant, employer, insurance carrier and medical practitioner necessary to begin the claims process. Details of the claimants employment and circumstances surrounding the injury or illness are also requested.
In Kentucky, personal injury means someone can legally claim compensation when hurt because another person was negligent. The law allows people injured to ask for money to cover different kinds of losses theyve suffered. These losses fall into two main categories: economic and non-economic damages.
Most personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. That just means they dont get paid unless you win or settle, and when you do, they take a percentage. For most cases, thats around 33.3% of the settlement. So, for a $25,000 payout, youre looking at about $8,333 going to your attorney.
Increased scrutiny from regulatory bodies. Potential civil and administrative fines. Repeated failures to report injuries as mandated can attract even more severe penalties and legal actions from injured employees and regulatory authorities.
