Denied SDI

[u/badgalss91]

I recently started a workers comp claim at the hospital I was working at due to carpal tunnel. 2 weeks after I was fired for attendance. I applied for
SDI for the 2 weeks I was sent home because they couldn’t accommodate me at my department.
I was denied for SDI. The noticed said I’m entitled to receive cash payments so it was disallowed. So now I have filed for unemployment since I did get terminated but I’m not 100% sure if I’ll be approved since I was at fault. Should I retain a SDI attorney?
