It’s easy to get frustrated with your workers’ comp claim. You’re not alone. Delays, restrictions, and tough assignments can make quitting feel like the only option—but it could be one of the costliest mistakes you make.
In this episode of The Verdict, Clarke Speaks and Brian Groesser explain why voluntarily quitting your job during an active workers’ compensation claim almost always hurts your case. They discuss how quitting cuts off your weekly benefits, removes your leverage in mediation, and can leave you with no income for months while waiting on a hearing.
Here’s what we discuss in this episode:
🚫 Don’t quit – Voluntarily quitting usually stops your weekly checks immediately.
⚖️ Leverage matters – Ongoing benefits give you bargaining power in mediation.
⏳ Litigation delays – Filing for benefits can take 9–12 months without income.
🕵️ Carrier tactics – Unpleasant work assignments may be designed to make you quit.
📞 Consult first – Always talk to an attorney before walking away from your job.
