Missouri's Workers' Compensation changed

Beginning January 1, 2006, there will be no legal adviser in Missouri to give technical help to those filing workers' compensation claims.

Under the old workers' compensation system, legal adviser and administrative-law judge can give advice to workers, the former could offer technical help while the latter can make recommendations before approving the final award.

More than 70 labor groups have filed a lawsuit, alleging that the new legislation "reduces the rights of employees so greatly that it denies them justice for their injuries."
