Workers' Comp Injury Types: Acute vs. Cumulative Explained

Описание: Did your injury happen in a split second, or did it develop over years of hard work? In California, both are covered, but they are handled very differently.

In this video, San Diego Workers' Comp Attorney Thomas DeBenedetto breaks down the crucial differences between Acute (Sudden) and Cumulative (Over Time) injuries. Knowing which category your injury falls into can be the difference between a denied claim and getting the maximum benefits you deserve.

What You’ll Learn:
• The definition of an acute injury (e.g., falls, lifting accidents).
• How cumulative trauma works (e.g., carpal tunnel, repetitive strain).
• Common mistakes that lead to denials for "Over Time" injuries.
• How the QME process changes based on your injury type.

Free Consultation: If you've been injured at work in California, don't navigate the system alone.
