Best Answer

The time to receive payment depends on the particular jurisdiction and Workers' Compensation laws. In Georgia settlements are approved by the State Board and that process depends on how busy they are. I tell clients that once papers are signed that they could expect approval in about a month and a half. Of course it could occur earlier. At that point, it is up to the employer or insurance company to cut the appropriate check(s).

It depends on the company. If you had an injury claim, you usually have to wait until your treatment is done. Ours wasn't paid out for 4 months.

After declaring a vehicle totaled can the at fault drivers insurance take possession of the car without first receiving the title and power of attorney from the owner?

If you agreed in your settlement to give them possession and or salvage rights on the vehicle, then "Yes", they certainly can take it based on that agreement whether or not you susequently withheld the title. They can always apply for a replacement title if needed based on your settlement agreement. A power of attorney is not necessary. If you intentionally tried to encumber that companies ability to take possesion of the vehicle after you agreed and accepted the settlement offer and have received the agreed compensation, then you are actually illegally depriving them of their salvage rights and could possibly open yourself up to legal issues involving theft by conversion. yes and no, they can (if they got permission from you) move the vehicle to a storage free location...they cannot however, dispense the salvage (sell the vehicle) until they have the required forms/titles from you.....


If your insurance has agreed to a settlement but you feel the dollar amount is not enough can you refuse the settlement?

You may want to try and sue the party first, if you except what the insurance company offers you then that is an admission of satisfaction on your part. NO! Once you accept payment from YOUR insurance company (technically, once you cash the check), you surrender any right to persue the matter against the responsible party any further. Your acceptance of the insurnce company's pay out legally assigns your right to recover further back to the insurance company. If the settlement is large enough, many insurance companies will go after the responsible party to recover what they paid out to you (in insurance lingo, this is called "subrogation"). Make sure you are happy with what the insurance company is offering before finalizing things.

Two Types of Insurance for your Yacht?

Considering how expensive it is to purchase a yacht, buying the right insurance is a necessity. The most important factor to consider is the total loss value settlement. With this in mind, choose between Agreed Value or Actual Cash Value. An Agreed Value is the limit stated on the policy when the yacht is deemed to be a total loss. The Cash Value option will pay the current market value of the vessel at the time of loss. The Agreed Value has a better payout and usually costs more. Determine what best suites you and check with you lender.


How do you file a personal injury claim?

First you should get a lawyer one who does not receive any money until the claim is settled. His payment should be agreed on before he is hired. The lawyer should only receive e money if your case is settled in your favor. After hiring a lawyer have them check to see if you have pip insurance. PIP insurance is personal insurance protection. If you have this fill out the paper work asap. The other good thing about having this is that it will not affect your insurance rates. This type of insurance will allow you to receive money to pay doctor bills and replace money lost do to lack of work.
