How To Fight Claim Denials Thousands of Cases Won. Millions Recovered.

How Can I Get Workers’ Compensation Benefits After My Claim Has Been Denied?

Denials of workers’ compensation claims are common. Disagreement over the extent of injuries, disputes over whether injuries occurred at work and failing to meet filing deadlines provide reasons for the insurance company to deny your claim. To add to this stress, no one from the insurance company or your employer will go out of their way to help you with the workers’ compensation process. You need an attorney with workers’ compensation experience to help you get a positive outcome.

At Kiwan & Chambers, APC, we have over 40 years of legal experience helping clients through the workers’ compensation process in San Diego, California. We have a track record of helping clients get workers’ compensation benefits after their claims have been denied.

Seeing The Insurance Company Doctor

One of the earliest steps in the process is to see the doctor. Usually, the insurance company will have a list of approved doctors for this diagnostic purpose. It is important to remember that the insurance company doctor gets paid by the insurance company. Insurance companies will only choose in-network doctors that they know are likely to deny injuries or determine that events outside of the work-related accidents caused the injuries. The insurance company doctors are not expected to give you a favorable analysis. Since many denials are based on unfavorable medical reviews, this is a crucial aspect of your appeal.
