Thought someone might want to know what I was offered for
my settlement. I've had 3 back surgeries and have three
lower disks removed. I have rods and screws in my back and
also have sciatic nerve damage on both sides. I have been
on pain meds for over 5 years now and I'm unable to work
and collect social security. Workers comp. insurance has
offered me a settlement of $17.000 thousand recently. I
hired the best lawyer after much research and was told we
can do a little bit better then that, but keep in mind that
social security will get some of my settlement to be put
aside for future medical that may be needed on my back and
then my lawyer gets his share. Boy if I can only go back to
work, don't expect to get rich off a workers comp. case.
they also take in what they already paid for you medical,
prescriptions and what they paid you every 2 weeks. Keep in
mind they DO NOT pay for pain and suffering. Good Luck folks
