I'm not even sure why I'm posting this except that I don't know where else to turn. I hurt my back at work back in January, pretty straightforward thing, I was lifting some heavy inventory and felt something tear. The insurance company approved my claim at first and I was getting my weekly checks, which weren't great but at least kept the lights on. Then about two months ago they just stopped. No letter, no explanation, nothing. I've called the adjuster at least twenty times and she either doesn't pick up or gives me some vague answer about needing to verify my work status. Meanwhile I've got rent due, my car payment, and I've already had to borrow money from my parents just to eat. I'm a single dad with two kids and I feel like I'm failing them because I can't even provide right now. I know I need to get someone involved who can actually make them pay me what they owe, but I've been putting it off because I'm already so deep in the hole financially. I finally broke down and started looking for a lost wages lawyer Saugerties NY because at this point I don't care about anything except getting these people to send me the money they've been withholding. Has anyone else been through this where the checks just stopped without any warning? How long did it take to get them started again once you had someone helping you? I'm honestly at the end of my rope here.
