Your Settlement Demand Went Out. Now What?

[luismarin]

I love your videos. I have a question I’m in California and I’m skeptical of my lawyer I signed my portion of a compromise and release settlement and apparently my attorney did as well. The defendants haven’t filed anything to workers comp judge and it’s been over 3 weeks since I signed. Apparently they are waiting on a letter from edd which is clearance or proof that I don’t have any liens that I owe. Which I don’t and never received any payments or unemployment as I never stopped working. Is that a real thing they need? That edd letter ?

Joe question at what point how many months after a demand letter goes out would you consider a staleMate no movement. Time to move on and get on with other things ? Life !

Can you try to point out or navigate when you give your settlement number demand at mediation what tactics or what percentage lower is a counter offer for example do they usually settle about half of what you ask or counter 90% less for example can you talk more on settlement number tactics from your experience what you usually see

What if your claim got approved, had IMEs that recommended that the insurer pay benefits, you're unable to work due to permanent disabilities related to your injury. What happens next? My attorney say they started negotiating almost a year ago.

If they don't want to settle do they still have to pay the checks

My workers comp adjuster sent me and my attorney a letter saying they wanted to settle. What's next.

What happens if you have a third party that caused the accident????

Can the insurance company back out of finalizing the settlement? Today I had a hearing call with the judge to finalize my settlement which was accepted signed by everyone and today I was waiting for the judge to call, instead my attorney called telling me there was a glitch by an insurance employee saying they won’t go forward with the settlement. So my attorney said he will work on it and see what’s happening? How can the insurance make a final offer which I accepted and signed, worker’s compensation signed and accepted we reached to the hearing to close the case and get my settlement, half an hour before the insurance company backs out. Is this legal? What should I expect next?
