Q. My thumb got jammed in a vice at work, and had to be amputated. My boss dont want to pay my dr's bills. Can I make him?

A: Most probably, Yes! Most employers are covered by Workers Compensation that would pay medical bills and also weekly benefits. You should contact a lawyer familiar with Workers Comp law as soon as you can. There are time limits that might need to be met on your part.
