hi i just have a couple questions about an injury I
sustained in sept.
1. my attourney is saying because I have a job i cant get
any compansation for the time im losing due to the court
ordered therapy i have to go through and im going to be
losing at least three hours per day by for three weeks due
to the time the therapy for my back is scheduled (no there
is no other schedule I can work to balance out the lost
hours)?

2. how long should it take to have the prelim hearing for
the case? ( happened in sept. took til december 18 from
what i understand that was good time am i wrong)

3. if my lawyer is not doing his job properly what would
be the suggestion to either get him on the ball because
the job never sent me to their doctor for one for two they
tried to get me to sign a contract with them with one
small bit that stated that the company would not be held
accountable for any injuries occured because of or during
the job. mind you that little sentence was in a paragraph
that had no bearing on that statement which was also on
the second page. Third when they recieved notification
that i was going for workmans comp they sent a letter to
my lawyer stating that i worked an entire work day and
called in the next day saying i went overnight to the
hospital and i wasnt able to come in to work for the next
two days. Problem with that was the hospital admitence
record shows i was there at around 12 to one in the
afternoon which is during my normal 8am to 5 pm shift.
what should my attourney have done differently should he
allowed them to require the therapy or has he been doing
everything correct so far?
4. any other information you have would be helpful as well
