Kansas City Disability Benefits Lawyers

An employee who becomes injured while performing duties associated with his or her work may be eligible to receive workers’ compensation benefits. These benefits can assist an employee with any costs of medical treatment for the injury, but more importantly, they can also provide financial assistance while the employee recovers from their injury. Several different types of benefits are available for employees who are rendered either temporary or permanently disabled by their work-related injury.

If you or someone you know has been injured on the job, an experienced legal representative can help you to pursue the benefits you need and deserve. Contact the Kansas City disability benefits attorneys of The Pottenger Law Firm LLC, at 816-531-6006 today to discuss the details of your situation with a qualified member of our legal team.

Types of Disability Benefits

In the state of Missouri, employees who are rendered either temporarily or permanently disabled by their injury may be eligible for a number of different types of benefits, including:

  • Temporary Partial Disability – for employees whose injury temporarily leaves them at less than full capacity and only able to work in a lower-paying job.

  • Temporary Total Disability – for employees whose injury temporarily leaves them unable to work in any capacity.

  • Permanent Partial Disability – for employees whose injury leaves them with permanently reduced employment capacities and hence reduced earning potential.

  • Permanent Total Disability – for employees whose injuries leave them permanently unable to work.

These are the basic types of disability benefits available to employees whose injuries either temporarily or permanently leave them unable to return to their job.
