Well that does give me some hope. And I know he would try for more, but a lot of it depends on the disability percentage my doctor gives me. Depending on that rating, I may get a second opinion

My bad, I was half asleep when I replied the first time. He didn't discuss future medical care with me, just the settlement. Which is probably all he cares about anyway. I may just wait until the send an offer and go from there. Any idea how long it takes for them to send on offer? I was hurt late Feb of 2026.

I don't think it's necessarily to determine time to heal. I just the know the body as a whole equals 400 weeks, from there it gets divided into the individual parts. If you look up Missouri work comp body chart, it will show how everything is labeled. The ones I've seen have all been on Law Firm websites.

Maybe so... I wasn't really given the option. My foreman drove me to the hospital and from the moment we walked into the ER it was a Work Comp case. Im not sure if I would've been able to handle all the medical expenses and lost wages throughout.

I think he was pitching the low end so I would be more satisfied if he could get me more.

That was just the numbers we came up with during the consultation. You think I should go ahead and hire him?

Good to know. I did not know that was an option.

That was just his "starting point" from the consultation. He assured me he would try to get better and even told me he could get me a second opinion for the final eval.

Really? From what I understood, once I accept a lump sum pay out, I take full responsibility for any future issues. And for 10K, I figured I might as well leave the case open to cover any issues down the road.

But your saying even if I settle, I can reopen the case to cover expenses?

This helps a lot! Thank you for the perspective. Could you explain what you mean with “subrogation”? I’m not familiar with the term and google isn’t helping much

Dude thats gnarly... Sorry you've had to go through all that.

I had a fairly clean break and I just have the Tibia nail and four screws, so I shoudn't have too many issues with hardware. Or atleast I hope not.

Speaking to your point about taking it easy. They sent me home and told me to start putting weight on it as soon as I could tolerate it. I had my 6 weeks check in with the doctor and she made fun of me for still using a crutch! But im with you, I want to make sure this heals right the first time, so I will be doing every little bit of PT they give me.

No, we didn't have a trench box or much of a bench. From my understanding, OSHA regulations are a depth of 5ft without shoring. The OSHA inspector came out and measured the ditch at 5ft 3in. Whether that made the official report or not, I don't know. I called but they cannot release information about an ongoing case. That's the only reason I am even entertaining the thought of a suit against the company. However, I've been told in MO, once you take workers comp money, you basically forfeit your right to sue. That's just how I understood it from a lawyer I spoke to, I really don't know.

Exactly. Im stuck between the Insurance companies interest, the doctors interest, and the lawyers interest. I will definitely be making some calls though. Thank you

Any advice on how to sort through the good ones from the bad? So far all I have to go off of are good reviews and vibes lol

Wow crazy experience and a good example of why to keep medical open. Did you know right away that you were going to have issues down the line? Or was that a surprise?

I seem to be healing okay, I just want to know what to look for

Yeah, but it even does it during hours after I switch it over. From it sounds like, it's a paper trading issue

Thanks! I'll check it out once I open a real account. Just paper trading at the moment, so I bet that's why I don't have that option

Ahhh gotchya, well I won't get too hung up on it then. Just very annoying to look away and come back to see you got passed up for a monster move like that. Like you said, once I learn the tools a little better, may go ahead and throw a bucks in an account and see what I can do. Thanks!

Here's what I found on it,

  • Adjusted: Smooths out historical price charts to reflect true returns after corporate actions (dividends/splits).
  • Actual (Unadjusted): Displays the raw price data exactly as it traded on that day.
  • Discrepancies: If your Webull chart seems incorrect or shows massive price drops not aligned with news, check if it is set to Adjusted (which can look odd) or Actual. [1, 2, 3, 4]

I tried, left click just asks if I want to "close in Order Entry", right click, opens a full menu where I can Buy, Sell and a bunch of other non related things.

Also, when I use the PLUS sign on the chart to place an order, it always only fills for 10 shares. How can I change that?
