I also wanted to note that if you do go to trial, the findings of the department of labor will likely help your case...and if it's appealed and ends up in a circuit court outside of the WC commission...even more likely that will help your case. But I sincerely hope it doesn't even have to go that far as you could be looking at YEARS and YEARS of WC not paying anything. Been THERE and that also sucks and is another reason why I ended up taking a settlement.
