Q: After an industrial workplace incident I was rendered 100% sterile. Do I have a possible Workers Comp Claim?
I am now sterile because of a workplace incident. Also injured my leg/foot. This was within a year. Doctor said I might not have a case as I can still make testosterone but not sperm. Friends suggested I pursue a workers comp claim for something called Partial Permanent Disability. Do I have a case?
A: There are many variables to this question, and answering whether or not you have a case is not something that is easily done without a consultation. Most attorney's that practice in workman comp claims will offer a no cost consultation. It would be best to contact an attorney in your local area that handles workman comp claims as well as medical malpractice.
