I am an amputee and one of my excuses for smoking was pain relief. Well. I was good, then yesterday as I was walking down the steep stairs to grab my phone, I slipped, fell, and my freaking prosthetic snapped at the foot. Landed and sprained BOTH fucking wrists. But. I did not smoke, and I am dealing with it, sober. Day 10 for the win!
Like many people I selected Option C, I was actually encouraged by my law firm to do so. Originally their was a lien search and no liens were found, got paid by Archer, took a long time but it happened.
Why now, on this distribution, is my portal showing paid yet my lawyer is STILL holding back 2/3 of my dispersment while they complete ANOTHER lien search through Zipliens? Milestone is supposedly sending my portion if the money and holding the other at the direction of my law firm.
It makes no sense. I NEVER went through counseling or was examined by a Doctor as an 11 year old. I never seeked any kind of medical or psychological examination for the abuse. I have ZERO liens.
I kept it buried. I was very reluctant to even believe a part of this lawsuit because of the pain it has caused. I even contacted the lawyers at one point saying that I was considering pulling out because it was dredging up too many negative memories. But the lead Lawyer on the case called me directly and talked me into it, saying I should continue and I was due condensation for their crimes.
So here I am and I feel like I am being perked around. Option C was supposed to be the choice that was the least complicated and holding back any type of money while a lien search was being done was NEVER discussed or even hinted at.
I'm tired of expecting something that continues to be reduced and held and so on. I was even told that this money would be TAX FREE but yet again, I found out it IS taxable.
This had been such a cluster F. I just wan't a resolution. I want clear communications and expectations set.
I am 6 days no weed. I found a bag of edibles. Threw it away. Tried to mentally justify eating them because I felt I was "throwing money away. Did not and I am proud of myself".
Hey, once you've contacted milestone and given them all your information, how long does it take for them to pay you?
Well.
Quit 3 days ago after 10 years.
And I am okay.
I'll check back in a few, just wanted to check in and say I am proud of myself.
