Re: Employer Imposing A Timeframe For When Injured Worker Must Return To Work
He needs a lawyer, asap. See www.wilg.org for a list.
Don't discuss it with the town's lawyer. He represents the opposing party.
In some states, the work comp will start paying weekly checks if the emplyer lays you off due to lack of light duty. Don't know if your state has that rule. That is why he needs a lawyer. Quickly. Before Oct 10.
The North Carolina Court of Appeals has held that "In contested Workers' Compensation cases today, access to competent legal counsel is a virtual necessity." Church v. Baxter Travenol Labs, Inc., and American Motorists Insurance Company, 104 N.C. App. 411, 416 (1991).
