      A Compromise and Release Agreement (C and R) is the means by which a Pennsylvania Workmans' Compensation Claim is settled, usually for a lump sum. The agreement itself, as amended in January 2011, is a nineteen paragraph "fill in the blanks" form required by the Pennsylvania Bureau of Workers Compensation. The employer and the claimant, usually acting through their attorneys, are made to specifically explain how various issues are being resolved in the settlement, showing how the legal rights of each party will be impacted going forward.

      It is almost never wise for an unrepresented claimant to go through the C and R process without getting an attorney involved. If an insurance carrier has proposed or agreed to terms for a Compromise and Release Settlement of your workers compensation claim, and you do not already have a skilled workers' compensation attorney, it is strongly recommended you contact The Law Offices of Timothy Kennedy, work injury lawyers, to discuss the terms of your deal and how to ensure your interests are protected in the settlement documents and at the C and R hearing. There is no risk or costs to you for such a consultation.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS:

I had a serious work related injury. I hired Tim after speaking with him and feeling completely at ease with his professionalism and demeanor. My case became complicated over time. Throughout the process I always felt that Tim had my best interest in mind. With every phone call or email, Tim was very informative and proactive, always explaining things in a way I could understand. He worked hard for me in his dealings with my employers insurance company. He did this so much so, the insurance company actually fired their own attorneys in the middle of litigation. In the end, Tim was able to negotiate a substantial settlement, including taking the burden off of me of an excessive amount of unpaid medical bills. I would highly recommend Tim.

                - Michael (Workers Compensation Client)

Timothy is a really great lawyer. He knows what to do, and how to handle really sticky situations. When I first came to him, I had very little to back me up, but we mainly him lol pulled through and got the job done with GREAT results. If I could back in time I would still pick him as a lawyer 1000 times more. He took his time, talk to me like I was a person and not a dollor sign, and made lawyer jargon understandable english for me. I truely felt comfortable with him handling my case, and I never doubted him since the very first meeting. I also like that he gives his personal direct number to get in contact with him whenever you may need him, and he always responds if not that same day, the very next. The only bad thing I would have to say is its a shame I would have legal trouble to work with him again lol.
