Legal Question in Workers Comp in California
my primary insurance is asking if my recent visit with them is part of an auto accident during work. What are they trying to do? Deny my claim? What should I do?

When you say your primary insurance, I assume you are talking about your medical insurance. It is typical for them to inquire about the cause of an injury. If the injury is work related they can ask that your employers workers compensation insurance cover the cost of your treatment. Additionally, if another party is at fault for your accident they may have a right to subrogation. If you would like to discuss this further feel free to call me at 949-830-1182.
If you are speaking about your own automobile insurance carrier, the same reasons apply as Mr. Morris explained.
