Will I get fired for hiring a workers compensation attorney?

Your employer cannot fire you for hiring an attorney for your workers compensation claim.  Additionally, your employer cannot take any adverse employment action against you for filing or having a workers compensation claim. However, the unfortunate reality is that many injured Hoosiers lose their jobs due to being unable to return to their pre-injury level of employment.  Often, employers take the position that they do not have work to offer injured workers within the restrictions they are assigned at the conclusion of their case and medical care.  Having an attorney in your corner during your claim will ensure that you understand your rights and responsibilities under Indiana’s workers compensation laws.
