www.raleighworkerscompensation.com Why are Valid Workers’ Comp Claims Often Denied?  Valid Workers' Comp Claims are Often Denied for flimsy details.  When a worker is injured on the job, they assume that they are going to be covered here in North Carolina by workers' compensation, and their medical bills are going to be taken care of, and they may get some weekly disability benefits.  Unfortunately, claims adjusters for insurance companies regularly deny claims that should not be denied.  Claims that should be claimed compensable.  They do this I believe to save the insurance company money, because they don't pay out then for the medical expenses or the weekly benefits.  Unfortunately, all too often working people who get their claim denied think that the system has just once again messed them over.  They go on with their lives without contacting a lawyer.  That is a mistake.  Many of the claims that are denied are in fact valid claims, and if you talk to a lawyer be it me M. Travis Payne or some other lawyer experienced in workers comp, your claim may in fact be successful.

https://raleighworkerscompensation.com/ DO NOT SPEAK WITH COMPANY INSURANCE REP PRIOR TO A COMP LAWYER: Here's a real world tip for injured workers.  The truth is stranger than fiction. To illustrate the requirement for an injury by accident , I want to use an actual situation.  I was contacted by a firefighter.  At the end of his shift, he realized he had left some gear on the top of the rear of the fire truck. He went up the ladder at the rear of the truck.  Came down the ladder which ends about 30 inches off the ground.  He jumps down, and immediately feels pain in his left knee.  He files the accident report.  About a day later, he gets interviewed by the claims adjuster.  She asks him, "How many times have you gone up and down that ladder?" (Probably thousands of times).  "What kind of surface was it that you landed on?" (Smooth concrete it was in the engine bay.)  "Were there any rocks or sand or sticks there?" (No)  "D...
