Workers’ Compensation Paralysis, Paraplegia and Quadriplegia Claims

Many people who suffer paralysis due to on-the-job accidents are unable to return to work. Although workers’ compensation insurers must pay for medical bills and provide compensation for lost wages, they may attempt to minimize available benefits to save money.

In North Carolina, workers’ compensation insurers are required to provide attendant care for those unable to care for themselves after a debilitating work-related accident. However, the insurers may not share this information willingly.
