Re: workers comp

Hi -

The short answer, is yes, as long as your injury arose during the course and scope of your employment, then yes, you can file a claim. The pre-existing condition is something that may influence your claim. Feel free to call me at my office tomorrow if you want to talk this through. Thanks.
