Guiding You Skillfully Through the Workers' Compensation Process
Workers' compensation benefits are available to employees injured while working. Self-insured employers and the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation often make the process to receive these benefits difficult.

Ohio Denied Benefits Lawyer
Under the work injury compensation process, the injured worker is responsible for filing a claim for benefits with his or her self-insured employer or the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation. The self-insured employer has the option of accepting the claim or referring it to a hearing with the Industrial Commission of Ohio. The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation either initially allows or denies a claim. If denied, the injured worker must file an appeal within 14 days of the Bureau's denial. Appeals are heard in front of the Industrial Commission of Ohio.
Initial determinations regarding medical benefits are made by the injured worker's Manage Care Organization (MCO) or by their self-insured employer.
There are a variety of different processes available for work injury compensation. Which process is applicable depends on the specific facts of the your workplace injuries claim, whether you have suffered from amputation work injuries, eye injuries or any other workplace injury.
