Legal Answers
- Q. Is it illegal to own stocks while on Workmen's Comp?
- A: Here in Massachusetts, there are no issues with holding stocks while receiving workers' compensation benefits. Holding stocks will not disqualify you.
- Q. when you have surgery for workers comp one year after DOI is your rate of loss wages based on DOI or current wages?
- A: It depends whether you were working in the year following the injury. If you were unable to work after your DOI, then your rate of pay is based on your wages from before you were injured. However, if you worked after your DOI (presumably up until your surgery), then your rate of pay is based on your wages up until you stopped working.
- Q. I rolled my ankle at work resulting in a break and severe sprain. Worker’s Comp is saying it’s not compensable
- A: Yes, of course! If you suffered an injury at work, then WC has to take care of you in terms of lost wages and medical care until you are able to return to work. Use Justia's "Find a lawyer" tab to find someone near you.
