Legal Question

Question - is there any law that states you CANNOT file a lien against a legal malpractice case? In a nutshell, person assaulted at work, is collecting workers comp; sued thug but attorney missed court appearance and it was dismissed and statute has run to refile; I get new atty and sue other one for legal malpractice....can the original employer put a lien on that case to recover any money to repay the workers comp?
