Legal Question in Workers Comp in Texas
I was on workman's comp. for a period a year ago for 'tennis elbow'. They gave me MMI and a $1,000.00 payment for 1% imparement even though I was still in pain. I don't think I signed anything agreeing to being "fixed". I have been in pain for the last year to the point I cannot cut my yard or do things I want to. It hurts everyday and affects my attitude etc. What can I do? Some of the reasons I am asking is that I do not like living in this pain and there is talk of lay-offs.
What should I do? Wondering if I get a lay-off notice can I make them fix my arm first(?) or do I need to do something now? Thanks
