Re: Having the Opp or not
You do not have to undergo another surgery. The matter should be investigated as to how after 13 years, you're no better. You are entitled to the cost of the surgery. You did not do well without representation.The worker's compensation system is very adversial. The insurance companies will get away with anything they can. They will pay you the minimum on your claim unless you obtain representation to protect your interests. The worker's compensation insurance companies have attorneys, why don't you? Attorney fees are limited by law to 9% to 12% of the final settlement or award. Call me directly at (619) 222-3504.
