The fact is that there is no requirement that you hire an attorney to represent you when you file a workers’ compensation claim. At every stage of the process, from preparing your claim to following up with the insurance company to navigating the complexities of filing an appeal, you are fully entitled to represent yourself. But the question is, why would you want to? Haven’t you already been through enough stress without putting yourself through the ordeal of fighting with the insurance company over whether or not you have a valid claim, sifting through the numerous statutes of workers’ compensation law and possibly finding out that your claim has been wrongfully denied?
You can greatly improve your chances of success by hiring us to represent you in your workers’ compensation claim. We know what type of evidence is useful in compelling an insurance company to pay with a minimum of delay, and can assist you by gathering all the documentation and testimony that may be required. Our firm can represent you in negotiations over the value of your claim, and we are ready to appeal your claim as far as necessary to recover the benefits you deserve.
