- Q. Injured at work last year 11/1/16. 2/15/17 complicated by infection of the injured leg causing sepsis and hospitalized.
- A: Get an attorney and DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING. If infection is of injured body part, that is work related. Talk to an attorney immediately.
- Q. I was sent to the insurance workers comp doctor I was hurt on April 6 it's now may 15 I'm on a 90 day investigation
- A: Apply for EDD. As to medical attention the employer is obligated to pay up to $10K while your claim is in delay. I highly recommend that if you do not have an attorney that you get one. Remember Work Comp attorney's work on a contingency fee which means you have no upfront cost and you pay them when your case settles with 15% of the settlement. Competent representation will get you a lot more than the 15% you are paying him. Good Luck!
- Q. Can missing work to find another job effect my pending settlement?
- A: If you go against the restrictions that your doctor is recommending yes it might because they may bring you new employer as a party. If you look for jobs which would not require you to use your body parts claimed as injured you should be OK.
