People like this make the rates go up for the rest of us. I've had a back injury claim with L&I in the past, and believe me, to hike or climb, you need your back as well as your legs. With the state, you have rights to contest them, and continue to receive a check until it is resolved. No one is ever retrained without getting a lawyer. Good job catching a scammer.

L : I pays bi-weekly. So Robin was making 1075.00 per week. Your math is wrong each check is for 2 weeks worth of work. L : I pays bi-weekly. So Robin was making 1075.00 per week.

I suggest you keep up with the class. Nope RB- just making fun of our president who said he had visited 50 states here and believed he had “7 more to go”. I suggest you keep up with the class.

Only 50. What surprises me in this article is that Briejer received about $2,150 per week in L&I comp. Amazing money for a self-employed carpenter. And Crusader, if you think that insurance, or "Big Government" for that matter, ferreting out fraud is a bad thing thing then you are crusading for the wrong people.

There are many claimants who are denied for a righteous claim. If the numbers don’t add up, an alarm goes off.

Maybe on the first back injury claim the vocational training should have been for a less physically demanding (like mountain climbing) vocation.
