Can Child support garnish my workers comp benefits

One of my students aimed a laser pointer to my left eye which has caused at least a temporary injury (poor vision) which may be permament. The student has since been expelled for 12 mos. and charged with assault. I should say this occurred on sovereign tribal land exempt from State Worker’s Compensation rules.
If my injury does not heal up and winds up permanent who has liability because the child and his family live a very meager existence already? My school has stated they will pay my medical bills via their insurance coverage but I’m in pain and suffering daily while trying to recover my vision. Should I retain a personal injury attorney to protect my long term interests.

My ex husband recieved a workers comp settelment of 16,000.00 less than four months ago and decided to spend all of it on a restaurant and not pay his arears of 3684.00 in child support. His check was cut in the state of Ga and child support order is in Fl. We had mediation and I asked for a minimum od 10 percent of the check he laughed at me and said there was nothing I could do it was all gone we go in front on the juge on Jan 28th what are my options?

I am currently living in Nevada, but moving to WA state. I have been on workmans comp for the last 6 months, and have filed for medical retirement.
The move is not voluntary, but due to my house being taken in foreclosure. I’ve notified my employer, OPM and DOL of the move, and no one seems to be concerned about it.
I am concerned that my job may try to fire me for job abandonment. Since I am still on their employee roster [only on paper] can they do that, and if so aren’t they responsible to warn me? DOL has not responded yet to my certified letter, but I basically requested my case be transferred to WA state.
Do they transfer cases readily, or do they commonly refuse to do that as well?
Thanks for your help. I’m trying to be proactive and find solutions before anything happens

I was injured (exposed to toxic fumes..still sick) at work about 3 days before I planned to submit a resignation. I had an opportunity to do the same work from home but through a different company(no competition issues). So here I sit injured with a 90 review for WC and the other job isn’t ready now for another several weeks. The reason for 90 day review is “your doctor didn’t say your injury is work related”..what? (california)

If I have a workers comp settlement that is to be used for my lifetime care that is going to be awarded to me due to my inability to work any longer, if I get married will I be responsible to share my settlement or will it go to his back child support in which he currently pays on. I live in California I just wanted to see if we should wait to get married till after my case is over?
