  If you're dealing with a tricky workers' compensation case or your employer's insurance company is playing games and providing subpar care, absolutely do not hesitate to call Brett Vigodsky at Levin Law. I wish I had sooner. In my case the insurance company basically vanished when surgery was recommended. They just wanted to send bare minimum checks and would not return phone calls or approve treatment. The day after Brett took the case, suddenly everything was being scheduled and medical devices were being ordered. Brett and his wonderful associate Debra were amazing and got me the care and settlement I deserved. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone.
