Kentucky Workers’ Compensation Law Changes

Effective July 14, 2018, Kentucky began operating under different workers’ compensation laws. If you suffered an injury at work and have a potential workers’ compensation claim, these changes likely affect everything from how the dollar amount of your benefit is calculated to how the insurance companies can limit your medical treatment. The changes might also be even more restricting on the time limit for filing your claim. It is always important to contact an attorney early in the process of a workers’ compensation claim, but these changes make that even more vital.
