Re: workers comp
you certainly have a case. If the company has no insurance, you may be able to go after them outside of comp. Call me.

If the company did not have workers' compensation coverage in Pennsylvania the State Workers Insurance Fund may be available to provide prompt payment of medicals and compensation for lost wages. You should discuss this with an experienced workers compensation attorney local to your area.
