Before you decide to hire, or not hire, an attorney to represent you in dealing with the workers' comp insurance company, you should read the Kentucky Workers' Compensation Guidebook.  You can find it here: http://www.labor.ky.gov/workersclaims/Pages/Publications.aspx , along with a wealth of other information about workers' comp claims in Kentucky and how they work. 

The Guidebook provides a basic overview of how the process works, but it does not "play advocate" and inform you of your rights.  An attorney with 25 years of workers' comp experience will explain all of your rights and options, so you can make informed decisions concerning the resolution of your claim.  

Don't settle for less.  Visit http://www.moriartylawoffice.com/ for a free explanation of your rights.
