I must say that the only thing that I found wrong with this book was it's statement that the lawyer's don't get paid unless you get a settlment. In the state of Florida the workers comp lawyer gets paid 20% whether or not they win a settlement for you. This is rather important information.

The deck is stacked against you as an injured worker.. you just want treatment and care that you deserve .. the Workers Comp system only wants to keep you from receiving that care and save the insurance company money which directly relates to the income of their stockholders.

You can not fight for your rights without knowing how the system works and how unprepared you are to deal with it. This is an excellent book to, at the very least, help you know what to expect and how to try to navigate through the confusion and frustration of this system.

It is a terrific book for learning the terminology of the Workers Comp world which for the most part is a foreign language... I wish you well.
