Illinois | Workers Comp
I've had a workman's comp. case going for about 2 years. My neck was injured from another employee running in to me and knocking me down. My lawyer really did nothing with it until a couple months ago. He called saying he couldn't do much with it, but the workman's comp. insurance would pay a little more than $6000 in settlement. Now I received a letter that he had been talking to the doctor that referred me to him.??He says he has to pay the doctor $6000 of that in bills he wasn't paid 2 years ago? I questioned him on it, and the doctor never billed workman's comp., nor my insurance for whom he is a provider.I also have never received a bill. He originally said I was not responsible for workmans comp. bills. Now it sounds like he is splitting it with this doctor. This does not sound legal or ethical. What can I do?
