Insurance companies often fight hard against paying workers’ compensation claims for sprains and strains. We stand up against powerful insurers and present strong cases for coverage. We document that an injury was caused or exacerbated by work and that the employee’s ability to work has been hindered.
Our experience in this area is significant, and we never blindly accept an employer’s denial of a sprain or strain claim. We vigorously advocate for full coverage.
Each sprain or strain injury case we accept is thoroughly investigated and diligently pursued. We gather medical documents and research all possible legal avenues in creating a sensible, results-driven strategy for obtaining maximum workers’ compensation.
