You may not sue your employer for an on the job injury. You may still file a claim with the Workers Comp board, and they will require him to pay your expenses, even if He does not have workers comp insurance. An employer may not escape liability by merely ignoring their requirement to be insured. Many comp attorneys work on a percentage of the recovery, which is usually paid by the employer, on top of the damages awarded. You should consult with a comp attorney immediately. But, no, you may not sue your employer. The employer's business insurance likely does not cover damages that should be paid by workers comp.
