Do I Qualify For The Second Injury Fund? Here’s Why It Is Available.

Extremity Injuries And The Second Injury Fund

In response to American GIs returning from World War II with injuries, Iowa adopted a unique law referred to as the Second Injury Fund. The Second Injury Fund was set up to compensate workers who have suffered injury to an extremity, like an arm or leg, AND who also had a prior injury or condition involving another extremity. The prior injury does not need to be work-related.

Many attorneys are unaware of Iowa’s Second Injury Fund. The Second Injury Fund is available as a means to increase the settlement amount.

If you were injured on the job in Iowa, make sure your workers’ compensation lawyer knows how to help you get the maximum monetary settlement you are entitled. Talk to an attorney at Loney & Schueller. From offices in West Des Moines, our lawyers represent injured workers in communities throughout the state.
