Have
you been hurt on the job?
"You must have a
disabling injury which "arises out of" your job. The injury
does not need to actually occur at work as long as it was caused
by your work. For example, if you have a heart attack caused by your
work, even if the heart attack happened at home, you may be entitled to
worker's compensation.
You must be out of work
for a minimum of five (5) days before you can collect worker's
compensation...."[Massachusetts law] Read more in our
Worker's Compensation Primer.
Need to protect
your home from creditors?
"A homestead exemption [in Massachusetts] means that your
house is exempt from certain creditors so long as you, your spouse or
your minor children wish to live in it. It is a great means of
protecting your home from unforeseen disaster—car accidents where your
insurance isn’t enough, catastrophic medical bills, or just financial
disaster.
Effective November 2, 2000 the Homestead Exemption in
Massachusetts has increased from $100,000.00 to $300,000.00 and the
elderly and disabled persons homestead exemption has increased from
$200,000.00 to $300,000.00." Read more in our Summer
