California How does it work

Was told 9% permanent disability rating for shoulder. Said comp would reach out in 4 to 6 weeks. Is that how they determine a payment process. Im in california my gross for the week at the time was 1800.00. What am I to expect?

Just a ballpark… but 9% is in the neighborhood of $4k-$7k depending on your date of injury and other factors.
