The first thing you need to do is file a claim with the Virginia Workers Compensation Commission (VWCC). You can do this by filing a blue claim form, which can be obtained either by calling the VWCC, (804/367-8615) and asking for information or by logging on to their website, www.vwc.state.va.us. If you have problems with this, you should seek legal advice.
