Workers' Compensation Exhibit Checklist FAQ
What documents do I need for a workers' comp hearing?
Bring your incident report, all medical records from your treating physician, pay stubs showing your pre-injury wages, photos of your injury, any IME report the insurance company ordered, a daily pain diary, and all written communications with your employer about the injury. Organize medical records by date.
What is the difference between my treating doctor and an IME doctor?
Your treating physician provides ongoing care and their opinion generally carries more weight. An IME (independent medical examination) doctor is chosen by the insurance company and examines you once. If the IME disagrees with your treating doctor, the judge weighs both — but treating physician opinions are often given more credibility because of the ongoing relationship.
Can I be fired for filing a workers' comp claim?
Retaliation for filing a workers' comp claim is illegal in every state. If you're fired, demoted, or given worse assignments after filing, document the timeline: when you filed, when the retaliation happened, and any statements by supervisors. This evidence supports a separate retaliation claim.
