Q: I was injured on my job and was awarded WC and SSDI. My employer' s actions caused me to develop RSD/CRPS. How can I sue
I became disabled by bad faith decisions and my idiot mgr. Practicing medicine without a license. My company is now scrambling to make sure all holes with ADA are plugged. For2 years I have been unfairly treated by the Insurance company....such as delays for medical treatment for my early stages of RSD and not adapting my co assigned vehicle to accommodate a wheelchair and lift. I want compensatory or pain and suffering. Is it possible
A: If your injury arose out of and in the course of your job, and you were covered by workers compensation insurance, and no "third-party" outsider (a person not working for or partnering with your employer) contributed to your injury, then workers compensation is the exclusive remedy.
