yeah me...been there too
well....its a big friggan game the insurance company plays....
they'll either wait you out .....til your almost broke
then they can pay out a much smaller sum.... in settlement.
you'll also have to see an independant Doctor
to get an independant evaluation
as to your injury limitations... and or disability...
and that is required long before you go to court..
you can also ask about retraining to get
re-educated for a non back straining sedentary job.....see
that's one of your options.
and while your in school ...doing that... you'll continue
to collect your workmans comp.. ( WC) until you've completed
your retraining... and sometimes that is BETTER
than recieving a lump sum and having to manage that amount.
you'll have to do the math on that... and run the numbers
