You need to speak with a workers comp lawyer to see if a new claim can be filed.
DO NOT DO THIS WITHOUT A LAWYER
You should not give a statement, give access to your medical information or sign any insurance company forms without speaking to a lawyer.
The insurance company is not your friend and is not concerned with your injuries and pain.
Their goal is to make $ by paying as little as possible on the claim. They will frustrate by delaying payment, giving you a low offer, or denying claim hoping you will get mad and go away.
I should know because I worked as a lawyer for insurance companies for 10 years.
You may be able to make a claim for more comp. benefits and medical care.
I would be more than happy to talk with you about the accident. I can be reached at (214) 800-3454. We handle cases throughout Texas.
