Legal Question in Workers Comp in California
I don't have an attorney (yet). Can I ask for a copy of the documents (WCMSA) that NuQuest and Argonaut Insurance sent to CMS. They will be making an offer to me for future medical care shortly.

Yes, you can request copies of any documents; it isn't clear whether the insurer has to provide you with those. Everything sent to CMS should have already been served on you as you proceeded: treatment reports sent by the primary treater, the QME report, records for review. typically the attorney just gets a cover letter of what was provided because both attorney already had all those in the file already, so they just get a list.
