Question

I worked as an over the phone interpreter for a company for over 5 years. I was fired yesterday for " inability to comply with company's standards" During my work with the company I've developed very bad anxiety attacks, hearing loss in my left ear ( the one that I was talking on the phone with, bad headaches, neck and shoulder pain. I have advised my employers numerous times that it's becoming increasingly difficult for me to work because of non stop stress, but nothing has changed. Now, I am off work and in a lot of pain. Can I file for worker's comp? Thanks.

Yes you can file a worker's compensation case. Have you treated for any of these medical conditions in the last five years? Feel free to call me at 213-388-7070 for a free consultation.
