How to Defeat a Workers’ Compensation Denial

Insurance companies are in the practice of denying claims whether it’s Worker’s Compensation or Personal Injury Protection Insurance. An insurance company will send you a letter indicating “work injury claim denied“. Denials range from pre-existing injuries to no evidence of an accident. Worker’s compensation insurance companies are not interested in paying immediate benefits. You truly need an experienced Work Accident Lawyer to help you solve these denial “hurdles.” If you’ve been the victim of a Worker’s Compensation denial, I have the next steps to ensure maximum recovery of all available benefits.

Report the Accident Regardless of the Circumstance

Make sure to report the accident regardless of what occurs. Report despite your boss’s threats that Worker’s Compensation benefits are denied. Contact an experienced Work Accident attorney immediately after the injuries are reported. You may receive a claim denial letter in the mail. Be sure to keep the paperwork, as it will be helpful to understand the reason for the Worker’s Compensation denial. DO NOT FEAR! We can defeat the Worker’s Compensation denial through litigation.

James was searching for equipment for painting at Home Depot. In the aisle next to him, there was a worker on a lift stocking the highest shelf. The worker pushed boxes so far across the shelf that they fell off the other edge and hit James in the head. The force almost knocked James unconscious. He sat down and the loud bang got the worker off the ladder to see what fell. When they saw James they offered him a bucket and made a report. James did not recall leaving the store or how he got home. He did not recall much except being at home depot and getting hit in the head. Home Depot told him that it was a small box of dust masks that hurt him. We discovered it was actually a large box of emergency kits that fell off the shelf.
