A big thanks to Monky for talking to me about this and running it by his employer.

An update: It appears after a few heated phone calls/conferences, my attorneys will adjust their take to equal the middle ground position. This is equal to how I think they should have advised me during the settlement conference with W/C. Not as good as I thought I was negotiating with W/C, but I think a fair middle ground. I still have not received the actual checks, so I'm keeping my options open until then.

Thanks again to everyone for your prompt replies.

For anyone who is going through this now, or maybe in the future, I hope this helps you out.
