I suggest you revise your post because it is hard too follow and too vague to answer. I assume you meant you received an "injury" rather than an "inspection." If you were injured at work, contact a workers' compensation attorney to evaluate the situation.

You have a defense to the claim, and you can bring the laser provider into the case. This is not a case where you get extra money for personal injury, etc., so we are just focusing on the $10,500 payment.
