You have hired an attorney.
You will be paying him/her a very large chunk of any settlement you get. Easily 25-33%. As such, you need to ask your attorney. You hired him to represent you and to provide guidance. Part of that includes answering your questions.

Your job can't dispute a workers comp claim - the workers comp insurance company has to dispute it.
How workers comp works, varies by state. Clearly, your claim was denied. It's possible that coverage does NOT apply - the judge will decide that. Meanwhile, if you're in need of financial assistance, you WILL need to go to a local charity, or your friends and family, or church family.
Workers comp isn't going to continue to pay you, because if they are RIGHT, and you aren't entitled to benefits, then they're pretty darned sure you're not going to pay them back. And they'll be coming after you for the payments that they DID make.
