Q: Workers compensation contract
I got ran over by a garbage truck while working. I was rushed to the hospital and had to stay for one night. I don't remember signing workers compensation contract. If I was drugged up at the hospital and a workers compensation agent comes in and had me sign their papers, do that counts? Am I able to get out of their contracts?
A: You may have a third party case and the contract you signed could be voidable depending on the unique facts of the case. Discuss with counsel here in Florida about possible contingency fee representation.
A: OK you may have a third-party case as well as a work comp case. The work comp contract that you signed could be voidable depending on the unique circumstances. You should consult in a private phone conversation with counsel here in Florida about possible contingency fee representation on both matters.
