California Workers Compensation Lawyer
You may be eligible for a Lump Sum Payment by commutation, compromise and release (C&R) or permanent disability advance (PDA).
Commutation is an order by a workers' compensation judge for a lump sum payment of part or all of your permanent disability award.
Compromise and release (C&R) is a type of settlement in which you receive a lump sum payment and become responsible for paying for your future
medical care. A settlement like this must be approved by a workers' compensation judge.
Permanent disability advance (PDA) is a voluntary lump sum payment of
permanent disability you are due in the future.
