Re: workers comp/tendonitis in my right arm

You need to file a claim and a WCAB application for adjudication to start the process. Your question is not very clear if you have reported your injury to the employer and whether employer or its insurance carrier have sent you to doctors. You need to do this right and without an attorney you most likely may not be able to handle your own case. Please call us at 213.388.7070 for a free consultation about your case.
