But I will say that she made an important point! In a workers' compensation setting, you cannot assume that a doctor recommended to you by your employer or its insurer will have your best interests at heart. Although most of us are conditioned to trust and respect physicians, you have to trust your gut if you find yourself in a workers' compensation setting. And if your gut tells you that your current doctor does not have your best interests at heart, you and your lawyer need to take immediate action to regain control of your medical treatment. ( QUOTE ) However , this philosophy can also be applied to Judges as well!! Thanks Atty. you agree in a sense !! However, you have excluded judges ! You just say judges make mistakes and who historically suffers People ! Are layman people aware of there legal mistakes no because it's so HUSH HUSH . There just quitely allowed to resign ! It's like theres a conspiracy to hide the conspiracy ! Im tired I'll finish responding another day ! Godnite Pro Se I will respond to this one another day in depth. But I will say that she made an important point!

On Oct. 25 of 2006 my husband was injured while driving a company truck from a job site. The person who hit him had no insurance. The company he worked for found reson to dismsiss him from his job. As to where until the accident he had no problem with this company. We have been going back and forth to his workers comp att. and still there is no ending this horriable mess that we both have been going thru. Now the company he workrd for has come up with all kinds of fictious stories about him and we can prove otherwise. Can you please tell us or give us a peice of advise.
