Workmans Comp Case settled in Calif March 13, 2009thTOPIC WORKMANS COMP.
My W/C case was finalized on March 13th 2009. I was first injured in 2005 It is now June the 22, 2009. I really don’t trust my lawyers as I have had lots of problems with them. HOW MUCH LONGER DO I HAVE TO WAIT TO GET MY MONEY? Seems like 2 1/2 months should be long enough, They tell me that it could be another 6 weeks. I was evicted, sleep in the car, lost all my credit,& have NOTHING now because of them. What else can happen. Can’t even rent a cracker box because of the eviction. 68 years old, too much for me. Credit & everything was perfect. Worked very hard my life to keep it.

Unfortunately, workers' comp cases are the toughest to collect and it can be years to obtain your money. If you feel your lawyers actually committed malpractice (there is certain criteria), file a claim with the California Bar. www.calbar.ca.gov
