new IB claim within 6 months
Wed 08-Mar-06 08:25 AM

anyone can help? client failed PCA, claimed again on new condition Med. cert said depression. First claim was based on physical injuries sustained from RTA only. At PCA client had mentioned depression. New claim turned down on grounds that depression not new condition...any arguable grounds for appeal here.
Thanks alot.
