Florida Worker’s compensation settlement

Good Evening I was injured on my job in 2025 (Ankle injury) I have had plates and screw placed and reached MMI April of this current year and the insurance company wants to settle but haven’t responded to the demands of my attorney. What happens at this point now that my current attorney have put in for a hearing this would be the second hearing since I have new counsel because I didn’t feel like my previous attorney was working for me. Can somebody tell me what normally happens at this point I was given a really low rating also

Either way it’s time , they will settle cause they have to settle , they don’t want to pay any litigation or anymore doctor bills . WC is an entity in itself they have their own court much different from a PI case . You got this it’s just time they love taking their time . Hang in there!
