I was injured on the job(drywall)in 1999, had surgery(one)
attempted to go back to work(same co.) but was laid-off
after I couldn,t perform as usual.I have a total of three
bad discs now(originally one)& AM IN CONSTANT DAILY PAIN!
I filed for comp back in 2001, have seen a company dr.
2x,but recently got notice from state guarantor that the
comp. carrier has gone bankrupt, but that i am in line
when the assets are liquidated.How does this affect my
claim? my lawyer is not talking(probably doesn,t know)does
any bright young(or old) lawyer know how this affects a
permanent disability claim? It,s been 6 years & living
with pain sucks, especially when i hear the nightmare
stories of how these insurance co. stick it up your ass,
when it comes to fair compensation. i have not worked
in "any" capacity since then & recieve social security but
have a large family(six of us)& am struggling to hold on.I
also have minor heart problems but no prior back history
at all.I am 47 years old. Need Advise!
