Re: work comp' back injury

If you received this injury at work then you may very well have a valid worker's compensation claim. You should hire an expert attorney to assist you and to assure that your rights are protected. Your attorney could have you examined and rated by a doctor of your attorey's choosing, and help you get whatever treatment you need. Your attorey would also make sure that you will receive a fair amount of compensation. Please take this to an attorney. If you do not have an attorney, you may feel free to call me and I will refer you to one of the very best in the state of Missouri.
