I have a medical history and had this same injury before at the same job. They are aware of my medical conditions and have been for 6 years. It never was a problem until it went under new ownership this last year.
An employment attorney could advise most meaningfully on the element of your wages; as to the Personal Injury category you posted under, this may be something closer to workers' comp than personal injury. If your injury took place within the course of your employment, you may want to consider... Read more »

You might also want to confer with defense counsel and find out what additional discovery they claim is outstanding so that you... Read more »

First stop and take a deep breath. You have insurance and they will handle it all for you. It seems they were making a claim with your insurance company for the past few years and were unable to reach a settlement. They only have three years from the date of accident to file a lawsuit, and I would... Read more »

The decision to suspend your daughter's assailant (and how long to suspend her) is likely in the sole discretion of the school's principal / superintendent. Do not be surprised if you do not have any say in the matter. If the student who attacked your daughter had a history of such... Read more »
I am pro-se Claimant in the NY Court of Claims. It happens that I am calling the same witnesses as the defendant (the State). The defendant presents the witness for their own defense but ALSO makes them available for Claimant's case. Is this means double direct and cross-examinations on each... Read more »
I'd be very surprised if the Judge allows you to call as direct witnesses individuals who have already been produced as witnesses by the State. More likely than not, if the witnesses are "hostile", you will have an opportunity to cross-examine them once the State has finished its... Read more »
I am the third party in a product liability insurance claim. The claim was denied earlier this month and just yesterday, the adjuster called me wanting to "resolve" the claim by offering payment for "pain" from the injury.

It's difficult to say what the cause for the change in position on the part of the insurance carrier was without seeing the file and all communications. But what you describe is not uncommon.
