Legal Question in Workers Comp in California
Filing after your fired
I went to the doctor and found I have a pretty bad case of carpul tunnel. I had insurance through my employer and gave them a doctors not stating I had it and I needed a wrist brace while working. I was fired for a different reason and now have no medical insurance. Can I still file a claim for workers comp for my medical attention that I need while I am on unemployment?

Re: Filing after your fired
You need to start the procedure as quickly as possible as a presumption of non-compensability will apply. If your carpal tunnel syndrome was work related you have a valid claim. You would be well served by obtaining representation. This is a matter for which an experienced hand in legal strategy in needed. Don't try to go through this by yourself, get the results that you deserve. Please call me directly at (619)222-3504
