The Claim Process After a Work-Related Injury or Illness

If you’ve sustained an injury at work, here’s an overview of the workers’ compensation claim process.

Step 1: Report the Injury

Report the incident to your employer immediately after sustaining an injury. Then, the employer will submit a report to their insurer and the Workers’ Compensation Commission.

Step 2: Seek Medical Attention

Seek medical treatment for a work-related injury or illness as soon as possible. Failure to seek medical treatment may result in a disputed or denied workers’ compensation claim.

Step 3: Complete Legal Paperwork

It’s time to file a legal claim with your employer following the on-the-job injury. At Goff Law Group, our workers’ comp lawyers can handle this process, including filing the proper paperwork. You should start the process immediately to preserve your eligibility for benefits.

Step 4: Deal With Your Employer’s Insurer

Your employer's insurer will make the benefits payments after a work-related injury. Our legal team can provide them with crucial documents like medical reports and earnings statements. They can either approve, deny, or pay part of the claim. We will negotiate until you receive the benefits you deserve for your injuries.

Why Do Workers’ Compensation Claims Get Denied?

An insurer can deny your workers’ compensation claim for various reasons. Some of the common reasons for a denial of a workers’ compensation claim include the following:

The accident is not work-related.
Your injury or illness is a pre-existing condition.
Your insurer may object to the severity of your injury.
You failed to provide a prompt notification to your employer.
You’re not covered under worker’s compensation insurance.

Employers or insurers find numerous reasons or excuses to delay, terminate, or deny your claim, which can prevent you from getting the medical care your condition deserves. Our workers’ compensation lawyers at Goff Law Group do not allow insurers to get away with these frustrating tactics.
