Common Questions Asked About Disability Claims in Florida

Q: How is it determined under law whether I am an employee or an independent contractor for the purpose of Workers’ Compensation Claims?

A: This question may reasonably arise when you try to claim your benefits. The courts usually look at the relationship and determine whether your employer had the legal right to control how you performed your job responsibilities.

If it is not clear, then the court considers your direct relationship with an employer. If you are found to be substantially economically dependent upon the employer then it will be found that a relationship exists and you will be classified as an employee.

Let us help you handle your workers’ compensation-related issues and we will have you rest assured. Call us for a free consultation at 727-894-3188.
