Scarring And Disfigurement Benefits

When a Work Injury Leads to Scarring or Disfigurement

When someone is injured so severely that it leads to permanent scarring or disfigurement, it changes everything. These types of injuries are more than just physically painful; they are emotionally painful and incredibly expensive to treat. Treatments such as skin-grafting, reconstructive surgery and long-term rehabilitation only add to the emotional and physical trauma the victim is already going through.

You are entitled to compensation to cover your medical bills, lost wages, and you’re entitled to specific loss benefits, which compensate you for the loss of your body part of the loss of use of a body part.

If you or someone you know has suffered scarring or disfigurement due to an injury on the job, the first step you should take is to contact one of our experienced workers’ compensation attorneys right away. We will help you maximize your recovery and ensure you are being compensated completely for your loss.
