Episode 140:  In Episode 140, Calloway County attorney Jeff Roberts discusses the 4 types of workers' comp income benefits available to injured workers.  Temporary Total Disability (TTD) provides tax-free wage replacement equal to 63 2/3% of an injured worker's average weekly wage.  This benefit is paid while the injured worker is getting treatment for work injuries or off work on doctor's orders.  TTD can also include income you receive from a second job.  Total Partial Disability (TPD) pays when you return to work but are on light duty or restricted hours that might not pay your normal income.  TPD helps to bridge that gap.  After the injured worker reaches maximum medical improvement, he/she will be assigned an impairment rating.  This rating determines benefits you'll receive after you've returned to work.  Finally, Permanent Total Disability pays benefits if it's determined that you cannot continue to work.    Jeff offers free, initial consultations to ensure you have the information you need to decide your best options.

Episode 138:  Kentucky workers' compensation attorney Jeff Roberts answers the question, "Why is my medical care getting delayed?"  There are many reasons why this might happen. But with almost 34 years of experience, Jeff understands how to minimize and possibly avoid delays for injured workers. If you been injured on the job, you should be covered by your employer's workers' comp policy.  Medical treatment is a significant part of the benefits you deserve.  Under workers' compensation, there are no co-pays or deductibles. Unfortunately, there are times during which delays can occur.  This doesn't mean the treatment is getting denied.  Rather, something may be going on in the case that doesn't seem to makes sense.  That's when having an experienced workers' comp attorney can resolve the delay and enable you to receive the treatment you need. The law gives the insurance company time to investigate your injury and to determine that it was, in fact, work-related.  It may be a situation in which your employer hasn't notified the insurance company in a timely manner.  This process may result in a delay in getting your workers' comp file setup and assigning a representative to handle your workers' comp claim.

Episode 128:  In today's episode, Calloway County social security disability attorney Jeff Roberts discusses common "speed bumps" that can arise after a Social Security disability claim has been decided.  He advises why these issues require prompt attention rather than panic. One significant challenge is the Continuing Disability Review (CDR), where the Social Security Administration evaluates whether a recipient remains disabled. Another common hurdle is a notice of overpayment, which often results from earnings or workers' compensation offsets. These may be resolve by disputing a factual error or seeking a financial hardship waiver. Relocation can also disrupt a claim by changing the assigned hearing site or affecting state-based benefits like Medicaid for SSI recipients. Jeff encourages anyone facing these issues to contact an experienced attorney, noting that his firm provides "small town service with big city results" from offices in Murray and Hopkinsville.

Episode 127:  In today's episode, Calloway County worker's compensation attorney Jeff Robert explains several important reasons using structured settlements in Kentucky workers' compensation claims can be very beneficial to the injured worker and his/her family. Structured settlements often used in other types of personal injury claims, such as car wreck, motorcycle accidents, trucking collisions, and cases involving minors with significant injuries.  Because Jeff handles those types of cases, he's very familiar with using them and explaining the benefits to his workers' compensation clients. A worker sustained catastrophic injuries on the job.  The settlement negotiations involved such a large amount that Jeff worked directly with attorney for the insurance company, which was unusual.  The attorney commented to Jeff that he was very impressed by Jeff's working knowledge of the structured settlement options.  Jeff was able to work out a structured settlements for the income benefits, the Medicare set-aside and the future medical benefits.  It turned out to be the largest settlement, not just in workers' comp, that Jeff has ever obtained, involving guaranteed payments, for a client.  There's a strong possibility the amount will double over the next 40+ years for his client.  In talking with the attorney for the largest workers' compensation insurance company in Kentucky, that attorney believes this workers' comp settlement is the largest that company has ever made.  Additionally, that same attorney believes it may be the largest workers' compensation settle ever in Kentucky. [Disclaimer:  This is no guarantee of future results for other clients.  Each case has its own unique facts.] We hope you found this episode insightful and helpful.  Thank you for listening!

Episode 126:  In today's episode, Calloway County motorcycle accident attorney Jeff Roberts provides his motorcycle safety tips.  Jeff has ridden motorcycles for many years.  As an injury attorney who has handled many motorcycle wreck cases over the past 33 years, being a motorcyclist himself provides a valuable perspective when he's litigating these cases. Jeff explains how motorcyclists must pay much more attention when other cars are on the road.  They tend not to see motorcycles or make decisions that can place the motorcyclist in danger.  In Jeff's experience, most motorcycle collisions tend to be the fault of the driver of the car, not the motorcycle.  Even though it's early in the year, Jeff's already been contacted by an injured motorcyclist who was involved in an accident on 641, in Murray. Attorney Fee Structure – No Upfront Fees Jeff does not charge upfront fees for motorcycle cases.  He only gets paid at the end of the case, when he's successfully resolved the claim.  He'll pay the litigation fees, including any court costs and expenses.  Those fees and expenses, along with his attorney fee will be deducted from the settlement or verdict, at the end of the case.  This is referred to as a contingency fee basis.  If Jeff is unsuccessful in your case, clients are not responsibility for the litigation fees, nor the court costs and other expenses.  There is no cost to contact Jeff.  He offers free, initial consultations.   We hope you found this episode insightful and helpful.  Thank you for listening!   What Do Other Clients Think About Jeff?
