You should immediately consult a Virginia workers compensation attorney to make sure that your claim is properly filed and that you receive the protection of the Virginia Workers' Compensation Act. Be sure not to give the insurance company a recorded statement before you consult with an attorney. If you have specific questions about how to proceed, you may contact me.
