It would definitely not be worth it to sue her but you can kick her off your case by telling your doctors not to speak to her, withdrawing all permission for her to obtain confidential information and basically isolating her. If you have an adjuster on it, call the adjuster and tell him or her to get a new case manager, if you want one. If you have a lawyer, tell the lawyer to take care of this. However, I assume that you do not have a lawyer or else you would be discussing this with the lawyer. Therefore, feel free to call me as I have 32 years experience in workers compensation and am a former adjunct member of the Workers Compensation Appeal Board. See www.sternlawfirm.com
