Preparing for an argument whether a case recovery should be solely under workers compensation (WC) or civil court. The battle here is venue: Workers' Comp vs. Civil Court.

If we are trapped in the WC administrative system, recovery is severely capped to medical bills and lost wages—even for PTSD, which only gets covered for treatment and missed work. If we can pursue a civil tort claim, damages are uncapped, and we can fully recover for emotional distress.

The biggest recent case testing this exact boundary is: Zwerner v. Newport News School District
