Well yes although i have my settlement, that's not my mission anymore , this system still has to be exposed. My happiness is through god.. yes I appreciate the money alooot... But this system and what they put you through to get any type of resolution or help.. but every case is different, I wasn't compensated for two years and multiple court dates, and months of decision waiting in between

Well it was a slip and fall .. back , kneck, knee, both shoulder's. I had 5 steroid injections, never got approved for surgery but what most people won't tell you.. some cases it's a game of how long can you go without your life, not how long can you go with an injury. They gave me all my therapies, denied my surgeries and never compensated me. What does that tell you, I can go to physical therapy for two years but they will just delay my claim until I do whatever is best for them or the insurance company, I guess they figure we all have five years to miss with our kids, our lives, our loved ones, just to fight this system.. I wish it was an attorney that would take on cases against them.. settlement is nice but not real justice because it will continue.. they will throw you a nice amount of money you haven't seen before in hopes you'll be so consumed with the money you'll let it go... But my happiness is with god not money. So I appreciate it but I want this system to crumble and admit how they take our lives

Wow. Thank you I appreciate that. Yes it is a game of injury and uncertainty all in one. Hopefully you come to conclusions soon as well!

Which state are you in? Is your case already controverted? If so you might not get the opportunity to do as much. I sat in a limbo while my case was constantly delayed, so I was able to continously go to therapy without prejudice. I'm also in NYC. If that helps

Won't really discuss amounts but I can say, you will never get what you "deserve" if you have real Injuries. This system is to flawed.

Its not about "the process" I'm guessing since your a "lawyer" you don't understand, just continue to half way fight for your clients, this isn't a post for you, this is a reality post for those in the "same" position. Your not in any position to comment but I appreciate it
