permanent disability

[onam]

Hi all,

I have a question regarding closing of my claim. I recently signed a C&R. The insurance co stopped payment on a td payment but has not yet sent another, or sent a letter stating that my payments will stop. Will I receive a letter or do they have to send a payment out until my C&R is signed by the judge?

they are not suppose to settle claims until you have finished your recovery and are declared permanent and stationary. If you are P&S then you should get a benefit letter advising you that TD will stop.

Well I called today I was determined P&S a month ago. And they sent a check 2 weeks ago and stopped payment on it the same day I received it. Now when I called today they stated they are suspending all payments until my C&R is signed by the judge. I asked will I be receiving anything at all stating this and was told NO. Not until I receive my final check or the C&R is returned. This does not sound right and I've asked my attorney and they are telling me yeah that's about right they don't have to send you anything.

not true.
If you are P&S then they have to send advances every 2 weeks (deducted from the settlement).

Who do I contact if they do not send it? Because they told me all payments were suspended until they receive my C&R signed.
