Permanent and Total Disability Benefits

Section 34A/Permanent And Total Disability Benefits

If the employee is found incapable of returning to any form of gainful employment and the disability is found to be permanent, benefits can continue beyond the maximums provided for temporary total or partial disability and they can conceivably last for the employee's lifetime. Permanent and total disability is payable at 66.66 percent of the average weekly wage up to the maximum weekly rate allowed. Cost of living adjustments (COLA) will also be payable in addition to 34A benefits for injured workers over the age of 65 in all cases. For those under the age of 65, cost of living adjustments may be payable in certain cases.

Brendan, I cannot adequately communicate how meaningful your role has been in this life-altering experience. I can say "Thank You!". I do it from the bottom of my heart, but I thought I would attempt to show you just a snippet of the impact you have had on m life, and, i can imagine, on the lives of others like me. Blessings! Kristy

Brendan was very understanding and supportive emotionally as well as being knowledgeable and experienced legally. He worked with us to achieve the best possible outcome in a very difficult situation, and we would highly recommend him. Sam

Brendan was great in my case. He was very professional and made sure I fully understood every step that was happening in my case. Every thing I signed he made sure I understood all the fine print and he explained it very well.He negotiated way more then what I thought I was going to receive. Brendan always stayed in constant contact with me and was very easy to get a hold of for any and every question I had about the process. Very thankful to have worked with him. Greg

"… I wanted to express my thanks and gratitude to you. You always said it was your job but it seems to me it is your calling. Anyone with enough hard work can be a lawyer or a nurse but not all can express empathy, compassion and infinite patience to guide others through a confusing and difficult journey …" Anonymus
