The owner may be personally liable. Working without a workers compensation insurance policy makes the company and or its owners liable.

Your should contact Franklin Burns. He is a plaintiff's attorney who is very good at this. I refer cases like yours to him. His number is

(404)303-7770. Tell him I suggested you contact him.

Good luck,
