Worker's Comp Claim

Well, I need to start by saying that I had no clue what a beast it is to file a Workers Compensation Claim. I tried as long as I could to personally oversea my claim and the process of my claim. Once I was convinced that Workers Comp is not a friend of mine nor the injured employee, I hired the firm ...at Kelly A Matthews. My assigned lawyer is Kristen Hunter and her trusted paralegal, Melissa Johnson. They set up expectations early on and told me to hold on tight and that I was about to enter into a volatile game of "prove my injury and honesty." They were right on the money. It is incredible that we, the injured employees, need to fight for the rights that were supposed to protect us in these cases. I will admit that the wait is frustrating and nerve racking, but it is of no fault of my attorney and staff. I place blame on the Insurance Agency and the Texas Commission Worker's Compensation Agency. The hoops that are in place can only be best fought with a knowledgeable Attorney and Firm like Kelly A Matthews. Seriously, someone needs to monitor the process and fix it to benefit the injured employee so that we can get back on our feet and back to work in a safe environment. I am so thrilled and at ease that I have Ms. Hunter and Ms. Johnson directing my case. I must also mention that it is imperative that us clients stay calm and organized and keep your attorney informed at all times. We also need to help them help us by following all guidelines and attending all appointments. I am certain that my up coming case will be handled efficiently and professionally. If the outcome is not what we are hoping for, then I trust that I and my law firm did everything in our power to be honest and accurate with our statements and material. I will fight to the end and hoping for a favorable and just outcome in January.
