Yes you do. All companies who do business in Michigan are required to carry workmen's compensation insurance. Any capable attorney will be able to assess your situation and advise you of our rights and potential recovery. This is nothing to sit on. You need to be aware of the statute of limitations for bringing a claim.

You can sue the employer and the owners of the uninsured business. I generally love these kind of cases. Give me a call. I am a former adjunct member of the Workers Compensation Appeeal Board and have been practicing workers compensation for 30 years. William S. Stern
