...workman comp outcomes? I just found out that my attorney workes with all the other ones in the community and is friends with the one that represents my case.
I called others in the area and was told they all cover for each other.
I also was told by a nurse case manager that there is a pattern which I fit.
My attorney told me to settle my case as a 15 03 and agree to 2/3rds of what my real salary was and to a lesser injury and I will recieve compensation for the difference of my old salary at 2/3rds. He insisted I agree, and to end the matter I did so.
A year ago the comp attorney claimed I did not submit my W2 on time and opened the case to demand I pay everything back $38,000.
The comp board sent a letter stating it was recieved in Feb which was very much on time.
In the mean time I also had seen at the ER with arm pain (my original injury), but they insisted I be worked up for my heart, it was negative and they discharged me, and would not treat my arm pain. The other attorney who is friends with my attorney has decided I have a new heart condition and they means my arm is no longer the reason I cannot return to my old job.
My attorney told me to get an evaluation and just pay $1000. for it, I didn't have the money and put it on a credit card. He then told me it doesn't matter because another Dr said it is my heart. No medical records say it is my heart, but now my attorney and his friend (the comp attorney) want me to pay for an unrelated test. I just realized they donl't have a clue what they tell me to get, they just tell me to do random things. I can't get another attorney, because when I called other offices, they all state my attorney is the best and they cover for him when he is out of town.
It sounds like the cases are fixed, and originally agreed to pay, which creates records that comp helps many people, but then they have to repay the funds, which is not reported to tax payers, which means the tax money meant for workman's comp is mostly being used for adminstrative fees.
Even if I am wrong about the reason, I do know that I cannot get a fair hearing in this rural community.
Can anyone tell me what laws are being violated by these attorney's?
