[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 324167, member: 484"] Upstate, agreed, but that is not his problem. As long as someone pays the bills, they can fight it out among themselves. The problem with all this that affects the driver is that the insurance company now no longer will be willing to pay the bills, and the comp insurance will postpone it as long as they can. If I were a betting man, I would suggest that you drop the comp claim, and continue with filing on your insurance. I only see problems with now claiming that this injury is really comp instead of an off the job injury which it is classified as now. So I would shut my mouth as to what I am claiming until I have talked to a really good comp lawyer, so you have at least an idea of what your rights are at this point. Running your mouth without representation is only going to come back to bite you later. Trust me on that one. BTW, one thing you have not mentioned in any of the posts you made: Is there any documentation besides your phone call that monday stating that this was an injury that occured on the job that friday. I know you said it now. But is there anything documenting it? Like records at the ER that sunday night? Or your records of the first visit to your doctor for this injury? If there are none, I think you are pretty much screwed. d [/QUOTE]
