Sticking it to NH workmans comp. assholes.

  Ok, we really need a bit of help here.
   I have a friend of mine that has been fighting the NH workmans comp nazis for 7 years or so.  He has had spine vertabre replacement twice and has had a lot of damage done to his neck because of the NH w/c assholes cheaping out on his first surgery.  The first surgery didn't go as planned and he got necrotised cadabra vertabre instead and they didn't heal, of coarse, so he had to get the procedure done a second time. 
  What we need is for the NH comp people to quit screwing with my friend. They have hired private detectives and slashed his tires and there have been arrests.   His lawyer is great and has gotten him all sorts of judgements in his favor but the state W/C people keep on dragging their feet and trying to drag their feet so they don't have to do what is rite, the system is designed to destroy a person and it has done a great ammount of damage to my friend.  If what was happening to him happened to me, I don't think I'd have been able to handle it as good as my friend has. 
   The hearing is the 9th of September and we need as many people there as we can to shine the light of day on these cockroaches.  I will post the court room when I know for sure.

Workman's Comp Insurance, although statutorily required by the State in certain contractual instances... is not a State insurance. Your friend's employer contracted with a private insurance company for the policy. Since your friend has a third-party attorney... not sure what else can be done?

Has your friend checked to see if there is an arbitration clause in the contract? 

Most private companies offer this as a form of alternative dispute resolution to their clients as a legal/litigation cost cutting measure by avoiding the court system.  The drawback to this form of ADR is that it is non-binding, usually issues opinions against individuals, and is usually directly financed by companies which offer it in their contracts in the first place.
