Q: Thank you,the question from the PA unemployment woman was did they lay you off or did you quit
I said really neither,that I was unable to return to work with the injury I received at work and there is no light duty and I needed surgery,she kept going back to say when you filled out your claim for payment biweekly online that I checked I am available for work,I explained to her again yes but in a very limited capacity I would be available for work since I needed knee surgery and therapy,she was very ignorant to say the least,I was being straight up honest,now they are holding my unemployment check,what is my best move here ? I feel like I'm being screwed left and right, I greatly appreciate everyones input on this board.
A:
Rather than constantly asking questions about your situation on this website, I believe you would best be served by contacting an Attorney who is a Certified Specialist in Workers Compensation Law to discuss your rights and remedies.
The Initial Consultation would be Free of Charge and most Attorneys will accept your Workers Compensation Claim on a Contingent Fee basis and if you need help with Unemployment Compensation, most Attorneys will accept said case on a Flat Fee basis.
