Legal Question in Workers Comp in Iowa

My husband injured his back on the job two years ago. He was living in Florida, the accident occurred in Georgia, and the company he worked for is located in Ohio. We have been dealing with Ohio work comp since then. He has changed jobs, but now is being told he needs to take three to four months off to let his back heal. Is he eligible for family medical leave?

Great question but I am not qualified to answer a question about Ohio or even Florida workers� compensation law since I practice in Iowa. I am licensed in Florida but haven�t practiced there so I�m not comfortable expressing an opinion that you could rely upon. Call Jeffrey Meldon in Gainesville, Florida and tell him I referred you. He�s at http://www.meldonlaw.com/ and I do highly recommend his firm.
