Spied on by Worker's Comp (Accidents & Personal Injury Law)

Sun, 24 May 2009 07:30:00 GMT

My question involves workers compensation law for the state of: Michigan

I have been off of work for two weeks and I will start receiving worker's comp for a back injury. I was at a bar and had another woman approach me and ask my name and age. Am I just being paranoid or could I be being spied on? Thank you

  • It is not uncommon for insurance companies to make sure that the people they are paying benefits actually need them.

  • It is very possible (and likely) to be spied on. Yes, insurance companies and W.C. can hire private investigators to make sure a claim is valid.

    There was a storyline on the old Beverly Hills 90210 where "Brenda" was involved in a car accident. The victim was suing, and claiming horrible neck pain. Brenda felt bad, went to take flowers to the victims home....and found the victim actively participating in aerobic exercise.

    Yeah....what was an incident on a TV soap opera has happened often in real life. The W.C. or insurance company is just protecting their interests.

    PS...to my knowledge.....it can be just like the Paparrazzi are with the stars....you could be photographed from a distance.
