Workers’ compensation coverage is something that most workers hope they don’t have to use but most are glad that it does exist just in case they have to use it. When you are hurt at work, the last thing that you might feel like doing is try to struggle to pay your bills while you are having to deal with an increase in medical costs. Workers’ compensation coverage helps prevent this from happening.
Many workers’ compensation claims go through without any issues; however, there are some that aren’t handled as they should be. When a claim isn’t processed like it should be, the resulting decision might be something less than the injured worker should be entitled to receive. We are here to help you appeal decisions that provide you with the benefits that are due you.
When you are dealing with an appeal of a decision, you have very strict time limits. It is imperative that you open all correspondence and read over it immediately so that you can determine what action you need to take. Make sure that you use the proper process to appeal the decision so that you aren’t left without medical care or the reduced income that comes if you have to miss work.
Getting the benefits that you deserve can sometimes take a while. We will be by your side to help you fight for them and to protect your rights throughout the process. Just don’t let too much time go by or you run the risk of not being able to do anything about the denial or skimpy benefits.
