Re: depression
Exactly what makes you think it is work related? Did you ever have a history of depression or other mental difficulties before? What happened at work to make you think it was work related? Workers compensation may be available if it is work related. However, the burden of proof is somewhat higher in psychiatric cases. If you provide me with these answers, I'll be able to give you a meaningful opinion. I have been a workers compensation practitioner in Michigan for 27 years, belong to the workers compensation section of the bar and was an adjunct member of the Workers Compensation Appeal Board.
