    A fair workers’ compensation settlement varies from case to case.  There is no compensation for pain and suffering in a workers’ compensation case, which is much different than a personal injury case.  A fair workers’ compensation settlement compensates for permanent partial disability, wage loss, and/or wage differential benefits, total permanent disability benefits, lifetime medical benefits, and prospective medical care.
