Three Forms That Injured People Should Know

We have compiled a few of the most important forms in one place for you with a short explanation to help you through the process.

  • Predesignation form: A predesignation form is a form that allows an injured worker to predesignate a physician before their industrial injury.
  • Workers’ compensation claim form (DCW-1): This form is required to begin the process for a claim for workers’ compensation benefits.
  • Intake questionnaire: An intake questionnaire gives your workers’ compensation attorney the essential information they need to begin your representation.
