Good day all.
I had my ACL torn at work and it was replaced. I received a 6% rating once all was said and done with lifetime future medical. I have since got another job and am no longer with the company. The WC insurance is going to submit a buy out of the future medical to the company and once they approve it, send it to me. I have not needed an attorney through this process thus far and really don't want to get one. I also would like to know what is fair, but cannot find anything on the websites for WC so as to get an idea. The doctor has me in therapy exercising and said I'll need a total knee replacement within 10 years due to the injury. Anyone out there had anything similar that can give me an idea? Oh, I am in California.
Thanks!
