Do You Have the Right to Paid Time Off in Kansas After a Personal Injury?
If you have been involved in an incident that qualifies you to file a personal injury claim, you may not know you have the right to paid time away from work. While your workplace is not necessarily obligated to pay for your time off if your employer is not responsible for your injuries, the liable individuals should be held accountable for these losses.
The liable party’s insurance company should pay for this after the total value of your claim has been calculated, so we recommend you work with an attorney. A lawyer from Hollis Law Firm can help ensure you are not taken advantage of by any insurance companies during this difficult time.
What Other Work-Related Losses Qualify for Compensation?
In addition to paid time off and sick days, you may also be eligible to receive compensation for any lost benefits related to your loss of work. You can also obtain financial recovery for any effect that might have reduced your ability to work as you would before the incident.
What Other Losses Qualify for Compensation in a Personal Injury Claim?
While you may know that you can receive compensation for medical bills or fixing up your vehicle and have just learned about your right to payment for time taken off work, you can also receive further financial recovery. The following losses may also qualify for compensation:
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Household out-of-pocket expenses
- Physical therapy
- Funeral costs
- Reconstructive surgery
- In-home rehabilitation
- Disability
- Rental car costs
- Court costs
- Attorney fees
- Travel expenses
- Ambulance ride
- Emergency medical treatment
- Change in lifestyle
- Loss of consortium
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Punitive damages
We encourage you to work with a qualified and experienced attorney to determine the full value of your personal injury claim. A lawyer from Hollis Law Firm can assist you with your claim, including estimating its value, identifying additional qualifying losses, and obtaining the compensation you rightfully deserve.
