Appeals & Denied Claims

Fighting Claim Denials

Receiving news that your workers' compensation claim has been denied can be a crushing blow. Your injury or illness is related to your job. But, you can't get the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) to understand your situation. Fortunately, a denial is not the final word. You have the right to appeal the decision.

When appealing a denial, time is not on your side. Sometimes, you have as little as 10 days to file an appeal. Therefore, it is critical that you contact my office immediately for swift legal action.

Comprehensive Workers' Compensation Representation

The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation may deny a claim for a number of reasons. Often, the denial is based on a technicality, such as failure to complete the application correctly. This commonly occurs when an injured worker attempts to seek benefits without legal representation.

For 25 years, I have been helping injured employees pursue and obtain the benefits they deserve. I have experience at every level of the appeals process and will:

  • File the appeal within the short timeframe allowed
  • Gather all relevant information to support your case
  • Represent you at the appeal hearings

When you appeal a denial, your employer is often represented. It is essential that you hire a skilled lawyer to protect your interests and fight for you. Using thorough preparation and strong litigation skills, I have built a reputation for achieving goals for my clients. Trust my experience to work for you.
