CALIFORNIA
WORKER COMPENSATION ADVANCES
Global
Financial offers cash advancements to injured workers in California
who have a valid worker compensation claim and who are awaiting
their final settlement amount. We advance a portion of the money
that we expect the worker to receive after attorney’s fees
and statutory liens are deducted. The worker and his/her lawyer
must fully execute a Green Lien to secure our financial repayment
upon the lump settlement in the claim.
Global charges a flat fee on California Worker Compensation advances
and the fees vary depending on the projected length of time that
the case may take to settle out with a lump sum payment. There is
no application fee if the worker compensation claim is lost for
any reason then the worker is not obligated to repay the advance.
Although many people refer to our services as worker compensation
loans, they are not loans but rather cash advances against the ultimate
lump sum settlement. You are actually selling us a portion of your
potential proceeds from the settlement proceeds of the worker compensation
claim.
Worker Compensation claims in California have taken on different
transitions with new legislation over the years. There were reforms
in 1990, 1994 and in early 1998 there was a rating change. A rating
is given to each and every worker that is injured on the job and
has an accepted worker compensation claim. The PPI or partial permanent
impairment rating is given by a doctor for the worker compensation
insurance carrier and by a doctor chosen by the worker. Those two
doctors will need to agree on a PPI rating before the case can settle.
If the first doctor gives a whole body PPI rating of 12% and the
second doctor gives a rating of 20% then they might agree on 15%
as a compromise. In 2003 there was another large reform which complicated
the process and evaluation of a Californian worker compensation
claim.
In addition to being issued a PPI rating, each worker will be
issued a benefit rating which is related to their income when they
were injured. For instance a worker that is being paid the minimum
wage a McDonald’s would receive a lower benefit rating than
a worker making $12 per hour in department store. The benefit rating
is also related to the amount that the worker receives while he/she
is out of work trying to recover. The agree on a final lump sum
settlement which will end the worker compensation claim in California,
the Whole Person PPI rating will be calculated along with the benefit
rating to determine the final amount that should be paid to the
worker to close out the claim.

California worker compensation laws are designed to help workers
that are injured on the job receive weekly benefit checks and ultimately
a final lump sum settlement. Unfortunately the weekly benefit checks
are not equal to the income that the worker was previously receiving
before their injury and the worker compensation insurance carrier
can deny the worker compensation claim and pay no benefits. Worker
compensation benefits in California include medical bills, weekly
benefit checks & a lump sum settlement.
