You CANNOT, repeat, CANNOT use a possible WC award as collateral
for a loan in ANY state. WC is about having to pay benefits, not
settlements. YOu cannot force a money lump sum to settle your claim.
And, when/if you die prior to the indemnity is paid out... there is
NO estate worth. The claim dies whenever you die. You are able to request an
advance around the indemnity due, there's no law that requires the
employer/carrier to grant the advance. They'll wish to settle the
case in chief...you're giving them a tool to make use of in negotiating a
low ball provide simply because you allow it be recognized you're money strapped.
If you've been released out of your Dr at MMI... you ought to be
making a concerted effort at a return to function...sooner than later on.
You don't need to wait for this claim to settle prior to you go back
to function.,
