I was on a ladder, and they had sawed one leg off of it. I asked my team not to use it, but someone was holding the ladder, and I got on. I was holding a piece of plywood, and when I stepped up, something happened. Something went pop, and there was a tear.
I had torn my gluteus. I was in excruciating pain. My hips and back were messed up from it as well. They should have given me an MRI sooner, because physical therapy put me in even worse condition. Then, they tried to settle up with me for only $2,500 – though I couldn’t even work. I had lost trust in everyone – my employer, doctors – but I had no choice. With just a $2,500 offer, I needed a lawyer. Another attorney told me that Reinhardt | Harper | Davis has the best workers’ comp lawyers, so I called.
That part of my journey was very calming and relaxing – Cindy and Stephen were wonderful. With Stephen, I knew I wasn’t going to be harassed anymore. I finally had someone who was going to stand up for me and fight for me. I had never had that before. Stephen was a straight shooter in our conversations, and I learned to be trusting again. I would recommend Reinhardt | Harper | Davis to anyone who gets injured on the job – I appreciate you guys so much.
