Were all the injuries incurred on the job?

Often if there is a previous documented accident or injury it complicates the proving of when, what & how the on the job injury/s caused the ongoing pain & problems...

They will try to blame it on the previous injury if it was not related to the same claim/case..

For the CA atty, I don't hav eany ideas.. unless if the CA website for WC has info on how to to change attys.. after checking on the atty change info & if you can do it - perhaps if you mention that as possibility- if you don't get clear answers from them soon -that you will change..

In OR or in 2005 anyway - attys will have to share the final fee.
