Frustrated and in Pain

I've hired Sapera as my WC Attorney since Jan 2013 and its been very frustrating and painful because they don't call me with updates. They do send me copies of everything but 2 yrs into this, my body is only getting worse. Ive gotten arthritis now thanks to my untreated heel injury sustained at work.... They don't push for surgery and they send me to this old doctor who just refers my to pain specialists and a foot specialist all the way out of my way which I cant even drive too cuz of my carpal tunnel. I have expressed this to lawyer for a year and they haven't changed my doctor. I am left with very little options. If it wasn't for my faith I would have given up my life by now. They are very umcompassionate and unprofessional.

Avoid at all costs

I became a client after I was rear ended while at a complete stop and received some medical treatment, from a Chiropractor. After leaving the case alone for almost 2 years with no update, or follow up... I began to receive debt collector calls from the Doctor. The insurance company, per usual, refus...ed the medical bills. Mr. Sapera was completely unreachable and did not submit any paperwork OR make any calls on my behalf to attempt to get my insurance company to pay, simply for the medical bills: the statute of limitations closed on my accident and I am stuck with the FULL medical bill for an accident of which I had zero liability. I was told by the debt collector (over 30 years experience) AND another attorney that they had never heard of a lawyer being so incapable that they do not get hand delivered all of my paperwork and the other drivers paperwork to Mr. Sapera's office, only to have him tell me he never received it once it was too late. Mr. Sapera is completely unresponsive and did nothing to help me when I was a client.

TERRIBLE FIRM

I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. TRYING TO GET A RESPONSE OR A RETURN CALL WAS NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE. THE OUTCOME WAS HORRIBLE. THE DAY OF TRIAL THEY HAD THE WRONG PAPERWORK FOR MY CASE. TWO DAYS PRIOR TO THE TRIAL THE ATTORNEY RELIAZED IT WAS NOT A WORKERS COMP. CASE IT SHOULD OF BEEN FILLED AS A CUMULITVE TR...AMA CASE. LIKE I SAID IT WAS A TERRIBLR EXPERIENCE. THE DAY OF TRIAL MY ATTORNEY SAID "I DONT THINK WE HAVE A SOLID CASE'" YOU SHOULD TAKE WHAT THEY OFFER AND CALL IT A DAY. THE ATTORNEY DIDNT EVEN KNOW I WAS NO LONGER SEEING HIS DOCTORS HE ASSUMED I WAS STILL ATTENDING THE APPOINTMENTS SO THE DAY OF TRIAL HE DID NOT EVEN HAVE A FINAL REPORT FROM THE MAIN DOCTOR.
