FAQ

When will my benefits begin?

Some insurers will begin the benefits without the necessity of filing a formal claim with the Maryland Workers’ Compensation Commission. Once a claim is filed with the Maryland Workers’ Compensation Commission, the insurer has 21 days within which to begin paying benefits or file to contest the claim

The lawyers at ShugarmanMehring quickly work to obtain and submit all documents to the Employer/Insurer. This is to ensure the Claimant is paid their due benefits as soon as possible.
