2008 Florida Workers’ Compensation
Practice Series:
Permanent Total Disability

In existence for more than 70 years now, Florida’s workers’ compensation statute has evolved into a complex and ever changing law. Although its fundamental principles, an exchange of common law rights for a steady but reduced set of benefits, have remained in place, the specifics of the benefits available or the criteria necessary to receive such benefits have changed dramatically over time. Permanent total disability benefits is one of those areas. From the requirements for a job search, to the inclusion of the sequential evaluation process, to the ever changing formulas effecting the offset, to the latest Medicare considerations when settling a case, to dealing with vocational experts and vocational rehabilitation, I hope this work provides a concise and accurate study of issues significant in PTD claims. $95.00 (price includes postage, shipping and sales tax) Order Form
