Testimonial Joseph and Sandy Todd

Hello Scott,

Thank you so much for leading us to Mr. Colvin. We have spoken to him a few times in great length. He gave us a lot of suggestions. As for now, we are waiting on my next Dr.'s appointment which is next Thursday to see what the Dr. suggests. The PT I've been seeing thinks I need surgery. Before we heard back from you we met with two different attorney's and I was not happy at all with either one. One wanted us to sign immediately and the second one, we had a "conference call" with him in his office and we just left.

The one thing Joe and I have noticed about Florida, you can always tell the 'Northerner's" from the people down south. Mr. Colvin was so helpful, not pushy and he really suggested we wait until my next appointment and then call him if we wanted his help or more suggestions. One of the problems I may run into is "if" I have the surgery and of course it would be expensive it could use up all of the man's insurance {which is 100,000} and Joe and I have no personal health insurance to back up on so between the medical bills and the attorney fees we could exceed the amount of coverage and I would not get anything for compensation and also be out money for the surgery. But, on the other hand, being 43 years old I'm not sure how long I can work with my shoulder and neck this way, considering I will probably work forever.....

Again Scott, Thank you for your help and leading us to him, he seems like an excellent attorney. I will keep in touch.

WARNING: 2010 Census Cautions from the Better Business Bureau

Be Cautious About Giving Info to Census Workers

by Susan Johnson

 

With the U.S. Census process beginning, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) advises people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft. The first phase of the 2010 U.S. Census is under way as workers have begun verifying the addresses of households across the country. Eventually, more than 140,000 U.S. Census workers will count every person in the United States and will gather information about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race, and other relevant data.

The big question is - how do you tell the difference between a U.S. Census worker and a con artist? BBB offers the following advice:

** If a U.S. Census worker knocks on your door, they will hav e a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice. Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions.  However, you should never invite anyone you don't know into your home. Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the U.S. Census.

While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, the Census Bureau will not ask for Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers nor will employees solicit donations.
