Legal Question in Consumer Law in Texas
Do I have any legal recourse regarding negligence on the part of the insurance company handling my workers comp case? I believe their constant denying of requests and delays had direct effect on my injury becoming worse and requiring surgery. Had they listened and approved requests without weeks of delay, I would have been back to work MUCH sooner and probably would not have had to even have surgery.

Yes and NO...since Texas has a Republican controlled legislature/governor and Supreme Court Judges...they eliminated ie legislated by judicial fiat the right to sue work comp insurers for their deliberately harmful actions...TG...you are back to work...but VOTE and talk to your local state rep or senator ask them to change the law to permit workers to sue insurance companies who don't follow the rules...
