Dallas, TX residents or law professionals only please…?

1. Does anybody out there have links to personal injury attorneys for me in the Dallas area?
2. Has anybody out there (in the Dallas area) suffered from an on-site, work related injury/temporary or permanent disability? (if so, please tell me your story)

Long story short. In a menagerie of owners, general contractors, subcontractors, and employees I was injured while performing my job. I worked through the injury (in much pain) in order to complete the project. Yes, the injury was reported to my employer…the subcontractor. He did not suggest, advise, or otherwise seem to terribly concerned about getting me medical attention. Now I know why. He had no Workman’s Compensation insurance.

Here’s the problem: My employer is based out of Colorado. Also my home state. PI attorneys here in CO will not touch my case because the injury occurred across state lines. So, I have 2 options once I can find an attorney in the Dallas area.

1. File a claim/suit against the general contractor.
2. File a claim/suit against the owners of the property.

Please help. I’m in constant pain and have not held / cannot hold a job since Nov. 17th, 2008. To add insult to injury, my former employer has not responded to any of my phone calls or emails re: said injury.

Any ideas appreciated. Plz and Thx.

Cam, unless you have witnesses who will verify (strongly) your accident that can convince an injury lawyer (read : ambulance chaser) to risk taking your case on a contingency basis you are pretty much screwed on this. A lawyer willing to take this on contingency is gonna need hard evidence to sue this guy, and even if he wins the case, making him pay will be next to impossible (and any attorney knows that and is unlikely, hence, to take the case on contingency).

What do you think about illegals aliens employed as security guards @ 26 business?

A task force led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raided more than two dozen mostly Latino night clubs, restaurants, pool halls and other businesses Saturday night, arresting 49 undocumented immigrants employed as security guards, officials said.All of those arrested work for two local security companies, which authorities declined to identify Sunday.

"We don’t want to compromise the investigation so we’re not releasing the two security company names yet," said Jamille Bradfield, spokeswoman for the Dallas County district attorney’s office, which is participating in the investigation.

It’s unclear if more arrests are expected, officials said.

At 11 p.m. Saturday, teams made up of local, state and federal officers simultaneously hit 26 businesses in the Love Field area, northwest Dallas, Old East Dallas and Lakewood. No injuries were reported. http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/033008dnmetraids.160e1434.html

They are bad for America. It is good to arrest them.

"Five of the suspects face charges of document tampering in order to get licensed as a security officer and to carry a firearm, Ms. Bradfield said. That is a third-degree felony, and the punishment range is two to 10 years. "
""Hopefully, this operation will help us send a message that we will not tolerate the falsification of documents for undocumented aliens under the guise of providing security," said Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins in a statement Sunday. "

"Authorities recovered four pistols. Federal law prohibits illegal immigrants from possessing firearms.
Those arrested also face charges of being in the country illegally. "

.Civil Action No. 3-01-CV2247-N

1. Plaintiffs seek to recover sums fraudulently procured by
Defendants from Plaintiffs since at least 1998, by means of
medical and chiropractic billings for unnecessary and unreasonable
treatment, examinations, diagnostic tests, and other services in
regard to persons involved in automobile collisions. Plaintiffs
also request relief under the Federal Declaratory Judgment Act, 28
United States Code, Section 2201, to determine their duty to pay
for purported medical and chiropractic treatment of certain
insureds, and third parties making claim against insureds, and
their right to recover such payments previously made to Defendants.

2. Plaintiffs would show this Honorable Court that Defendants are
co-owned or otherwise financially related. Patients were referred
between various Defendants for a set course of chiropractic
treatment, diagnostic tests and evaluation, medical consultation,
and other services, regardless of medical/chiropractic need and
necessity. Defendants would then generate narrative reports,
itemized billing statements, and HCFA-1500 forms based on the
unnecessary treatment and diagnostic testing, to substantiate the
treatment and testing. These documents would be presented to
automobile insurers, such as Plaintiffs, through personal injury
attorneys…………………………………..

No.
Sounds like a rant. We all have our problems, but this is not the place to voice them.
