I was injured in workplace in early 2008. I was not at fault, a piece of equipment fell on my head. I went through state L & I process and have been seeing a doctor and now chiropractor. I still experience pain, numbness and discomfort associated with injury. In Aug 2008, I went to see and got an Independent medical exam and they couldn't confirm my pain. Now employer is appealing time loss pay and everything associated with injury. State has now decided that I need to payback all my timeloss pay from August 08 til Feb 09. I am not sure what I can do and would like to know if retaining an attorney at this time would be the best case.

An immediate consultation with an attorney is a must. If you do not act promptly to appeal the determination or ask for hearing, it will become a solid decision. Do not delay, seek a consultation with a worker's comp attorney.
