Can I Collect Workers' Compensation and Long Term Disability Benefits?

Disability insurance attorneys Rachel Alters and Gregory Dell discuss about whether you can collect workers' compensation and disability insurance benefits at the same time. There is an overlap between workers' compensation and long-term disability insurance. Usually, the long-term disability insurance lasts longer than the worker's compensation, because each state is different and workers' compensation is difficult to claim in most cases.
