I have a lawyer and a half. The second one has advised me, we just haven't decided to retain him yet. WC is US Dept of Labor which is why my first lawyer won't take that case. The second lawyer said they make their own judgements, cannot go to a civil court or mediation. My Nat'l union rep is trying, finally, to help. SSDI has been the smoothest process of all. But all of that is a heavy load, I just can't 'walk' away from. I do try to do much research on my own, but that in itself can overwhelm you, and I just have to walk away.
Thanks bunches,
pat
