Re: fell outside / no overtime paid?

You need to file a claim for workers' compensation, which should entitle you to have your medicals paid as well as obtain benefits for some-to-all lost earnings. I'd be happy to provide you with a referral, so please contact me at (305) 755-9441 for further assistance.
