Was Your Workers' Compensation Claim Denied?

If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, you may be wondering what rights you have and what you can do about it. At King Law, PLLC, Attorney King can assist you to determine why your claim was denied and how you can go about appealing or reversing it.

Common Reasons Claims Are Denied

There are a number of reasons why workers' compensation claims can be denied. It is important that you have a West Des Moines workers' compensation attorney on your side to guide and represent you. Attorney Mark King can ensure that you have everything in order to have the best chance of preventing a denial.

A few examples of the common reasons claims can be denied include the following:

• Failing to report your accident right away
• Failing to tell the truth or report an accurate health history
• Failing to keep a copy of all your information
• A pre-existing history of medical treatment or injury at the same body part

Often, employers claim that an accident never happened or that it happened in a way different than you described. The more information and details you have accounted for, the better chance you have to prove your case. It is important that you try not to raise any red flags with your employer's insurance company, as they tend to already be suspicious.
