Your question does not have enough information for an attorney to decide if they can help you with your workers' compensation case. I suggest you contact a lawyer directly so you can explain what your claim is about and why you think $3000 is not enough for your case.

you can turn in the rental--and may want to. If you have your own coverage, ask about it from your insurer. However, the big issue is property damage and if you paid for that you want to know you are covered.
