@MyLittleBloggie He has two claims: work comp (WC) and the PI claim against the state/landowner. He is entitled to WC benefits for his injuries. The PI claim requires he prove negligence to a jury. If he wins, he gets damages not payable under WC, and the WC insurer gets paid back per a formula.
@MPRnews A competent work comp lawyer should be able to prove you are an employee entitled to benefits under these facts, even if the employer is uninsured. Call me for details. I’ve represented numerous stagehands and technicians. https://t.co/UqsgxRm0bJ.
