Workers’ compensation is a tricky part of the law. Designed to protect both employers and employees from the hassle of litigation, this special type of insurance leaves employers on the hook for workplace injuries, even if they are not at fault.

On the face of it, it might seem simple: if you’re injured on the job, you file a workers’ compensation claim like any other kind of insurance. Your employer covers the cost of treatment, and, up to a point, lost wages.

Where things go wrong.

Sadly, collecting workers’ compensation can be fraught with complications.  When a claim is denied, the employee can expect a lengthy appeals process before a lawsuit is even an option.
