all I can help you with & your attorney can help you with is to allay your fears of losing your job. In regard to them laying you off, unemployment compensation does not replace the company's workers comp responsibility. Here in Pennsylvania, if the workers comp doctor, therapist. etc. refers you back to work, if you see another professional who says you can't return to work, then you don't have to return to work.
