This does not make sense. Did your attorney even argue against it strongly?
Are you getting copies of the communications and WC filings? I suggest you demand such copies. It will put both attorneys on the record.
You should be allowed to redact the medical records to remove any irrelevant information, especially if it involves your children. HIPAA should give you this right.
In fact, you should be able to redact any medical records that pertain to health issues that do not concern the brain and memory and cognitive functions.
Good luck with this.
My best to you.

Mark it never got to that point. My attorney called them and told them we are having an emergency hearing and they didn't pursue it. All I know is when I signed authorizations and it was for treatment from the date of the accident and nothing sooner so If they get some records preaccident date It will inadmissable and against HIPPA violations. I would definitely pursue that.
