What is the name of your state?CA
I was injured twice on the job, first hurt my neck which is cervical disk damage and secondly carpal tunnel. This was back in 2000, They are claiming I hurt my neck pryor to this injury which I have always been honest about. I had muscle spasms on and off prior to this injury at work but had x-rays which showed nothing but no mri then.. I have lost my job and am no longer recieving temp benefits as the insurance says they bellieve they have paid me the amount justified.... My last Attorney pass away and I just recoeved a new one and i just recieved a letter of a hearing for May.. What can I expect at this hearing? Will anything be decided on then? Typically is there more then one hearing? of course depending on circumstances? Is the temp benefits taken out of the settlement if awarded? They have taken the carpal tunnel as a work injury but we may fight for the neck injury?
