Even though you are no longer working for your employer you may still have a case. Many workers compensation cases are filed after the injured worker is no longer working for his or her company. However, as with any case, there are time limits as to the amount of time you may delay in filing a case, also known as the Statute of Limitations. Each case is different in how the Statute of Limitations is applied so you will want to speak to an attorney immediately to secure your rights under the law.
