What to do if I was working at a pharmacy doing electrical work and hurt my back and arm but I’m unlicensed and did the owner had no permits?

I don’t want to get into trouble for working unlicensed. Owner found out I got hurt and stopped payment on a check he wrote to me for the material I installed at the pharmacy. My doctor prescribed a medication. It gets me through the day and it hurts bad but I can’t afford to take any time off of work.

If you simply got hurt while working at a pharmacy through no fault of the pharmacy then you essentially are on your own with respect to the damages you sustained. I suggest that you consult with a personal injury attorney to assist as to what legal recourse if any you may have.
