My husband has been off work for 9 months. He ruptured 2
discs, and tore his rotator cuff. He was originally sent
back to work on light duty, and his boss tried to force
him to do his regular job. My husband injured himself
more. After getting a 2nd opinion, my husband is going to
have surgery to have the ruptured discs repaired. Can we
also sue my husband's employer for not following the
doctor's recommendation? What kind of a settlement are we
looking at? My husband's job requires him to lift and
install very heavy equipment, and I doubt he will be able
to return to work. He's definitely going to have to go
back to school. Does anyone know what the process is?
