Never has the adage “you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink” been more analogous to people than when one tries to force an injured worker to find a job when he or she simply does not want to. Maybe the injured worker is ready to retire or maybe wants to spend time with his or her kids/grandkids and can afford not to get a “real” job, or maybe he wants to go back to school. Maryland vocational rehab attorneys learn to recognize the difference between someone who is mostly just nervous about working again and afraid of failure and rejection versus an injured worker who really does not want to go through vocational rehabilitation.
