If you already have an attorney you need to ask your questions to him/her. If they are only handing the workers' compensation claim and not a personal injury claim then you need to hire another attorney. Normally attorneys like taking both claims as there is some coordination necessary when settling each, and it's easier for one attorney to coordinate the paper work. Hopefully that answers your question, you didn't provide much detail.
