Re: Worker's Comp
The workers' compensation system is very complicated. The employer and the insurance carrier will not tell you about all the benefits you may be entitled to. Even the doctors don't know that they can give an injured worker an Rx for attendant care to be provided by a girlfriend if the injured worker can't perform all the activities of daily living and needs help. The person providing the care can be paid by the hour.
Do you need an attorney? Probably yes. Most workers comepnsation lawyers will consult with you at no charge to go over all the facts and make sure all benefits are being provided. Good luck.
