Now if they can only get L&I into the same category as an insurance company. L&I blatantly bullys claimants and wrongfully treats everyone as a goldbricker paying crooked doctors to say whatever needs to be said to get L&I off the hook. I have heard and seen instance after instance of L&I doctors completely ignoring evidence regarding pain issues that have been medically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, but often, the victim is too poor to sue and must live on in pain.
