I'm actually in the same position that you are as far as workers' compensation. According to my lawyer, the settlement amount is determined by the pecentage of damage to you innjuried area and whether or not you are personally disabled to the point that you cannot provide for your family. You are seen by (3) different doctors. One from the insurance company, one from your attorney, and last the neutral doctor. After being examined, they will then average the percentages and come up with an amount according to a legal-injury book. Then you set a date and go to court. You can either settle or demand more. The choice is yours! I hoped this helped...good Luck

No they can't, if it has only to do with being on WC.
A insurance provided by employers for injured employees. There is a provision in Texas law whereby an employer may elect not to purchase workmens' comp insurance. About 33% of Texas employers do not have WC insurance.
It depends on the policy of your employer...I believe.
