Re: worker compasation was denied

If you feel you can't work--not even light duty--and if your doctor agrees, then you should not work. Your subject line says that your claim for workmen's compensation has already been denied. Such "denial" can take many forms, but most likely you will need a Workers Comp lawyer to pursue your claim with the Industrial Accident Board for you.

Good Luck.
