Hello,

Thank you so much for this opportunity to try and be of service to you today.

Wisdom...compassion..empathy. These are more than words for me. They are my promise to you.

I am a licensed attorney and will do my best to provide you an honest and accurate answer to your important legal question.

QUESTION: "Does that make the injury a workman comp injury or claim?"

ANSWER: First of all, please allow me to say that I am genuinely sorry for your circumstances and send my very best wishes for your speedy recovery. Here is how this works. Yes, based on your description, this is indeed a workers' compensation case as the injury incurred in what the law calls the "course and scope" of your employment. In other words, you got hurt on the job, and hence yours is indeed a workers' compensation matter as opposed to injuring yourself say at your home or while eating in a restaurant.

I truly hope all works out for you.
