get a lawyer now.......post office I believe has different rules than the rest of us so better check it out with a certified WC lawyer....at least get info

;)Workmans comp is not a road you want to travel alone.You need a good lawyer,a great family and good friends to lean on.If you make it thru without losing everything you have worked for all your life,you have come out ahead of the game.....Smile

You still need a work comp certified attorney.

Other IW's have found attorneys on this web site.

Look at the top of the page.

Good Luck
