Re: benefits

As long as you tell the insurnace company that you are returning to work, then no it is not fraud. You must tell them when ever you work. On the books, off the books, volunteer, barter, or anything that someone woudl get paid to perform.

There is a way that you may still be entitled to recieve additional moneyu or a settlement.

If you would like to discuss it further, please contact me. 631 / 539 / 9950
