That depends on what the settlement is for and what you mean by deal.
If you mean by dealing that you wish to have a settlement or appeal one then first you must be on top the medical information submitted since this is the primary basis for adjudicating your claim. Some doctors hate the paperwork for this and don't provide enough information. Explaining to them why helps. Ask your adjudicator exactly what medical information is needed and go to your doctor and get it. Sending it yourself makes sure it gets to where it is needed.
You need to make sure your employer has submitted the right kind of information, like accident reports and requested wage information. Since having a claim usually puts up their rates with workers' compensation employers often like to drag their feet on this in the belief that if they don't do it it will go away.
If you are talking about adjusting to having a disability because workers' compensation gave you a settlement then having support to help you adjust is important. Finding a support group, even one online helps. It is important to realise that grieving a loss of function is normal.
If you belong to a union have their workers' compensation person deal with them for you, they are the professionals who you've paid part of your paycheque to and know how to manage the ins and outs of the system.
