Don't mess with it, lawyer up.any thoughts or suggestions would help
Be careful about recoding phone calls or other types of clandestine activity, you risk opening yourself up for a criminal prosecution.

An employer lying about an employee getting hurt? Imagine that. In fact, that is pretty much the story of my daily law practice. Good thing you have a recording. Hire a lawyer - don't mess around trying to do this yourself.
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).
