Worker who died from blood clot after sitting, entitled to worker's compensation

Workers' Compensation cases in Florida are difficult, and the Florida legislation has done it's best to limit the insurance companies liability, while insurance rates remain the same.  Who wins?  Typically the insurance company wins, but hey, they are in business to make money.  We're you injured while working?  Sometimes repetitive actions or conditions causing injury to a worker is still something a claimant can file under Florida workers' compensation statutes.

Have questions about your injury?  Call me, 813 413-5352. Of course, I'm located in Tampa, Florida (FL), and serve clients throughout Florida and the Hillsborough County area. 

If you have questions in your state, it's best you find a qualified attorney in your area to provide legal advice.

Sealing or Expunging records in Florida

I have had many people ask me what is the difference between sealing past criminal records, or expunging those records.

The basic difference is how the Clerk of the Court handles those files.  With Expungement, the criminal records are destroyed.  Therefore, they no longer exist in any form. When records are sealed, the records still exist in a physical form, but no one can look at the records without authorization from the court.
