A person hurt at work is entitled to three benefits: (1) to get their medical bills paid for by their employer or his worker's compensation insurance carrier; (2) to get temporary disability pay from the employer to help provide for their family while they are temporarily out of work and (3) to a monetary award or settlement for whatever permanent injuries they have sustained as a result of their work-related accident or occupational exposure to chemicals, asbestos or repetitive stress. Mr.Bustillo is committed to making sure that his clients receive the temporary pay, get their medical bills paid, and get a fair award for whatever permanent injuries they sustain at work.
