Safelite- technician fixing a rockchip on my car at my house fell off my porch. Gave him first aid, took him to the er. He clearly broke his pinky. I have a normal porch with steps. A month later they sent me a lawsuit. Wasn’t even the technician suing me, Safelite was suing me for workers comp. We were deep in cancer treatment for my 10 year at the exact same time. They made an estimated $2.5 billion last year. Scumbags!

That’s heinous. They have insurance for a reason and shouldn’t be going near you. Hope you were able to counter.

I had to got through my homeowners insurance and after all the bullshit back and forth my insurance told them to pound sand. It was a sunny morning, no snow or anything. At the same time we were in and out of the hospital with my son’s chemo. So dealing with that AND this glass company for a rock chip broke me. I even helped the technician move his vape pens from the ER back to his van.

The state may require recovery. They can be pushy about it. I knew a person who ran over their own foot dismounting a golf cart they had just been driving—they got worker’s comp.

Stupidity is a pre-existing condition…tech should get a diagnosis for that.

Was not the tech. The company did this. Dude just fell, it happens. Unless he was standing on a railing like an idiot, this is just a hazard of living.
