I was injured on the job as a Firefighter with 24 years of service. My knee injury prevented me from returning to the firetruck. However I was able to work in inspections temporarily. 6 years from retirement the municipality I worked for fired me due to the fact that I could not return to my job as a Fire Captain on a firetruck. I retained a workman's comp lawyer and an additional lawyer to file a claim with the EEOC. My previous employer is not stating unless I drop my EEOC claim they will not mediate a worker's comp. settlement. HELP! Any feedback appreciated!
