When you suffer a workplace injury, it can be devastating to discover that your workers’ compensation claim has been denied. You may have counted on workers’ comp for medical benefits, lost wages or even long-term care needs.
While you may be frustrated by the system, you might still be able to collect benefits even though your claim was initially denied. At the Law Office of Steven H. Gurwin, we offer strategic, experienced advocacy focused on the rights and claims of injured workers and their families.
Most people do not realize that even valid workers' comp claims can sometimes be denied by the insurance company. Even after a denial, you can continue to assert your rights to workers' comp. Sometimes the insurance company will "do the right thing" only after an injured worker has hired an attorney. Contact a Denver denied claim attorney at our firm for an initial consultation or case evaluation concerning how to properly handle a compensation appeal.
Why Was My Workers' Comp Claim Denied?
Workers’ compensation claims may be denied for many different reasons, including:
Sometimes claims and medical benefits are denied when you don't have an attorney who can properly negotiate with the insurance company, or take them to court if they fail to give you the benefits to which you are entitled. It is not uncommon for an insurance carrier to admit liability and to start paying benefits once you begin working with an attorney who knows your rights and who can forcefully assert them through negotiations or in court.
If your workers’ compensation claim has been denied, we can give you an immediate consultation and evaluation of your claims. We will explore all of your options to recover the benefits and compensation you deserve.
