Lawyer For Workers' Comp Denials

Handling Workers' Comp Denials

Even though you may have been injured in an accident at work, it can occur that an investigation conducted by your employer's workers' compensation insurance company determines that it was not work related and denies your claim.  This happens more than most people realize.  Some common instances of this can occur when someone injures their back but happens to have a pre-existing back condition.  The insurance company and the treating doctor may determine you already had an injury and that no injury was actually caused by your work.  Or you are driving on an errand for your employer and are involved in a car accident.  It can be determined that you were not at work and your claim is denied.  There are many instances such as these, and in order to protect your rights and ensure your claim is not denied, you will need the experience of a qualified workers' compensation attorney from the Malaise Law Firm to assist with your claim.
