Don't Give Up

A denied claim is not the end. Many denied claims are successfully overturned on appeal. Insurance companies deny claims for many reasons, and their decision is not final.

Common Reasons for Denial

  • Claim filed after the deadline
  • Dispute over whether injury is work-related
  • Pre-existing condition cited
  • Lack of medical evidence
  • Employer disputes the incident occurred
  • Administrative errors or missing information

What To Do Next

  1. Review the denial letter carefully to understand the reason
  2. Gather evidence including medical records, witness statements, and documentation
  3. Contact an attorney for a free case evaluation
  4. File an appeal with the WCAB if appropriate
