Should I open workcomp case?

Workers compensation was designed to assit people who have been injured as a result of a work related injury.  It appears that you are fearful that you will be fired.  Generally speaking if you are able to perform your job satisfactorily your employer should not treat you differently just because you filed a workers comp claim.  However, in reality, some employers do treat employees differently.  If this were to occur you could fight it in court; but this is expensive emotional and time consuming.  Understadably it is a tough position to be in because you have a family to support and can not risk loosing your income, yet at the same time your injury may be so sever that it is limiting your ability to earn a living. I feel emotional about this situation and feel strongly about it.  I see this situation all the time in my practise.  I would love to assist you in making this decision.  First, I need to talk to you so I can ask you specific questions about your employer and your condition.  Please contact me I will not charge you for this assstance.
