Workers' compensation is a form of insurance providing wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured in the course of employment in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee's right to sue their employer for the tort of negligence.

The trade-off between assured, limited coverage and lack of recourse outside the worker compensation system is known as "the compensation bargain".

One of the problems that the compensation bargain solved is the problem of employers becoming insolvent as a result of high damage awards.

The system of collective liability was created to prevent that, and thus to ensure security of compensation to the workers.

Individual immunity is the necessary corollary to collective liability.

Some criminal defense lawyers are privately retained, while others are employed by the various jurisdictions with criminal courts for appointment to represent indigent persons; the latter are generally called public defenders.

The terminology is imprecise because each jurisdiction may have different practices with various levels of input from state and federal law or consent decrees.

Some jurisdictions use a rotating system of appointments, with judges appointing a private practice attorney or firm for each case.
