Can you do a topic on workers comp medical buyout? I am in need of some information on this topic. Trying to decide if it's worth a buyout. My case is old but left medical open, however everything is denial. I've needed surgery for 4 years and can't get it done. In So much pain. I just can't do this any longer. Thank you for your wonderful advise and info.
I have a w/c case for a torn meniscus and the claim took a year to get accepted during that time my lower back was affected bc of my off gait. We amended my claim to include the back. During my case my employer has filed for bankruptcy and has stopped payment on my TD payments and r no longer paying me. I have applied for SDI and they won’t pay me bc they say that the w/c ins co. Is to pay me. I have an ame in October but what do I do in the meantime to get money to live on and pay my rent and bills. I am so far in debt now. All this has caused me great stress and anxiety leading to my depression so my PCP has put me on an anti-depressant.
I have a work comp case and a 3rd party lawsuit. Can I settle out work comp and if still in pain switch to disability while I fight the 3rd party lawsuit? Thank you

Can you do a topic on uninsured employers and possible outcomes when suing? I was injured at work via assault with multiple injuries and I wanted to know what to expect with suing him and filing with uebtf. I wanted to know does my employer not having insurance negatively affect the amount I’d receive in a settlement
It's been 10 months since I had my QME. Still waiting on supplemental reports... 😬
30 days to get the report back is normal after the evaluation
