For many of the approximately 4.9 million workers who are injured, the process of a workers' compensation claim will become a life changing experience. D. A. Hougaard details real life experiences in an e-book novel to encourage those who have experienced, or are currently experiencing, a workers' compensation claim, that they are not alone.
The Bleeding Rose includes actual depositions (names changed for protection of all parties) to illustrate how an injured worker is perceived to feel like a guilty criminal and must prove their innocence, rather then getting the required medical attention due to inexperienced workers compensation claim representative(s).
In addition, D. A. Hougaard has compiled an e-book guide for those who seek help going through the process. This guide offers suggestions on what your first step should be if injured, selecting your attorney and why you may not want to get a work release from your doctor.
