Should I call my workers’ compensation attorney 12 times a day if my TTD check is late?

Sometimes, for no identifiable reason, an injured worker who is receiving workers’ compensation benefits will not get his or her temporary total disability check on the day it normally arrives. The workers’ comp insurance company might have a glitch, or the workers’ comp adjuster may have decided to find new ways of expressing her worship and adoration of The Devil.

It can also happen when “the day” referenced above is a holiday on which the mail does not run, such as Presidents Day. In such an instance, you do not need to call your lawyer more than ten times to let him know that the mail has not brought your check on a federal holiday. One time should do it.
