What Can an Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Attorney Do for Me?

The Workers’ Compensation claims process is not easy to navigate, and without someone familiar with the pitfalls, you could miss out on the benefits you deserve. Plus, if you suffered a serious injury that requires long-term healing and rehabilitation, the last thing you need is something to add stress to your recovery. An Oklahoma Workers’ Compensation Attorney from Armstrong Law Firm, PLC can help you through the process from start to finish, navigating the rocks and shoals of the process while you rest and recover from your injuries.

Plus, insurance companies deny claims every day for a variety of reasons. How much time do you have to pursue a claim rejection appeal and respond to inquiries or requests for more supporting evidence if you require extensive treatment and therapy?

In addition, many things can go wrong when you suffer an injury at work and need help:

• Your employer could refuse to file a claim with their insurance carrier.
• Your employer could try to file a claim containing false information about your injury or its circumstances.
• If there was a third party involved in your work injury, matters become more complex.
• Your employer may attempt to stop, modify or otherwise interfere with your Workers’ Compensation benefits.
• Your employer’s insurance company could deny your claim.
