At a recent administrative hearing, the law firm of Green Haines Sgambati obtained for an injured worker client over $36,000.00 in unpaid benefits which were owed by the Bureau but never paid out. This is an occurrence which is all too common. Withing the workers’ compensation system there are various means to obtain compensation. Many of these options are not known by injured workers nor does the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation or employers bring this to light. As a result, many times injured workers who do not have legal representation miss out on benefits to which they are entitled under the law. This money is then refunded to employers or sits in the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation Fund in Columbus.
