What is the name of your state? I live in Arizona. I have been told by a surgeon that the damage from a soft tissue mallet finger injury that I suffered at work cannot be fully repaired. The only thing he can do will only make it worse. My problem is that I am soon going to have to quit work. I am very dependent upon working with my hands. I know that when I seek future employment I will have to inform them that I have filed under worker's comp. in the past. I will also have to inform them that I have not fully recovered and never will. That fact may and will influence whether or not I am hired. Should I expect any kind of compensation from my current employer? I have one last appointment with our Occupational Medicine Doctor. Should all the details of any settlement be worked out before I actually quit. I am quitting because my wife just retired from the Air Force and we will be returning to North Carolina. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
