What if Workers Comp Benefits are Denied?
If your claim for workers’ compensation is denied, you can file a petition for benefits with the Office of the Judges of Compensation Claims. At this point in the process, many injured or ill employees hire a Florida workers’ compensation attorney to represent them. From there, the appeals process goes to mediation, a Workers’ Compensation Judge, a pre-trial hearing and to a final hearing. The decision of the final hearing can be appealed to a District Court of Appeals. Article provided by Mitchell Lloyd Feldman, Esq.
