Hello!
So I got hurt November 16th, 2014 and just barely finished my personal injury case. Anyways, I started out with a Workmans Comp case and he recommended doing both WC and PI. But both parties told me I cant win twice but how is that fair? PI should have given me what I will lose out on for the rest of my life and WC should pay me what I missed for 2014 and 2017. I know I got 60% of my pay during WC until they finished my MMI in 2017 but aren't I allowed the other 40% for those 3 years? BTW I'm in California and I was told by a friend that they screwed me over as I could have gotten more in WC then PI which WC should have been first versus PI. But I'm really blown away by not winning twice. I'm not making millions I'm not looking at honestly much at all but I did not get my full pay while I was off and that is not fair for me. Anyways off my soap box. Thank you for answering!
