If your injury happened "on the job" and was the result of you performing ordinary activities on the job, you are covered by Workman's Compensation Insurance that your employer is required to provide. Contact the Dept. of Labor for the state where you live, and the division for Workman's Comp.. If still no action hire an attorney. You will fare better if you hire an attorney that specializes in Workman's Comp. cases. The attorney will collect his fee from a percentage of the overall settelment he gets for you.
