Legal Answers
Q. Does a person need to go back to work 100 days after surgery
A: It all depends on the circumstances. In Illinois, where I am licensed, if your doctor has not cleared you to return to work then you should not go back to work. If the doctor has told you that you may resume work, you would not be entitled to any additional compensation for the time you spent off work.
Q. Do you encourage people to get along and to be friends?
A: While this is not a legal question, on a personal level, you should always treat others with kindness and respect. As they say, "you catch more bees with honey."
Q. If any girl fight with boy for her security and boy got series injuries then girl would be safe from case or not
A: Unfortunately, you could be sued in a civil proceeding. People can sue for pretty much any reason. I think it's fair to say that most personal injury attorneys would not take a case involving a physical dispute between a man and a woman unless there are significant injuries, in an unprovoked attack, that were caused by a person of substantial means (or some type of general liability renter's or homeowner's insurance).
