My husband had his arm amputated on a construction site, and his company isn't offering us enough money for this type of injury. What are our rights?
A: Amputations injuries are serious, since they leave a worker with a lifelong disability. Although your husband's employer knows that your husband will have to deal with this life altering injury the rest of his life and may not be able to return to work, they are looking out for their bottom line.
Your husband should not sign any forms or accept a settlement offer from that company until he speaks with a South Florida workers' compensation attorney. A lawyer skilled in this area of the law can explain to your husband his rights and determine how much he should be awarded.
Your husband should be compensated for past and future medical bills, physical therapy, in home care, pain and suffering and more.

FAQs
Workers' Compensation
- I fell from a height at work. I suffered broken bones, but now my knee is hurting. Is it possible that a knee injury may not have shown up right away? If so, what should I do to get the necessary workers’ comp benefits?
- I was severely burned in Broward County at work. It has been a slow and painful recovery, and my income has dropped. Am I eligible for workers compensation from my job?
- I was injured while lifting something at work. Some have said that it must be my fault and I probably wont get workers compensation. Is that true?
