Re: i am injured pregnant and they retaliated.

You should locate an attorney that handles workers' compensation cases in your area. The employer must comply with the work restictions of the doctor when you have suffered a compensable injury and are returned to light duty. Take a look at the Texas Workers' compensation Commission website or feel free to call me at (877) 647-9600.
