    Workmans Comp
    When you tell your lawyer that he is to except the settlement and he call workmans comp. and they set up a meeting with a judge at a state building. Can I at this time object to the agreement that workmans comp has agreed too?

    What? Do you mean Workers Comp made an offer, your Attorney conveyed it to you, you ACCEPTED it, now it is going before a Judge to be finalized and you want to appear and refuse the award?

    I don't understand what you are asking.

    You accepted and now you've changed your mind? The person to ask is your Attorney who knows where in the procedure this settlement offer stands.

    You need to voice your disapproval of the agreement to your attorney now - not at the hearing. By the time you get to the hearing it's basically too late to do anything about it. Why would you wait until then?
