Workers’ compensation is mandated by the state and is considered a “sole remedy” solution. That sounds fairly straightforward. However, it gets complicated when statutes, common law, contracts, and the human element all join together—or in contention—to permit, reduce, or deny the results workers’ comp was designed for—to provide a safety net for employees injured on the job.
“Because what appears theoretically simple is actually quite complicated, our clients have many questions we must be able to answer. This book makes it easy for you to answer 16 of the most commonly asked workers’ compensation questions.”
—Chris Boggs
