Re: Work injury
You made a mistake by applying for unemployement instead of disability because in your application you are implying that you are able and willing to work and in reality due to your work-related injury you should have been on disability. I recommend that you retain an experienced worker's compensation attorney and you may be able to rectify the problem. Feel free to call us at 213.388.7070.
