Legal Question in Workers Comp in California
workmans comp law
The new law in Ca. states that there are no more payments after two years. Because of doctors errors, I am still in pain and treatment, cannot work, and will lose my apt. and everything I worked so hard to get. My two years is almost up and I do not know what to do. It is causing me great anxiety and blood pressure problems, on top of having permanent pain, 'RSD' in my ankle and foot. What is my recourse for an extention, or help. I am receiving $800 wk. now. Barely making it. I would like to go back to my career, and have tried. I fell over from pain. I have a limp most of the time. Help! Thanks
