What should you do if payments stop or your employer's insurance company filed a petition to terminate your benefits? It can be a devastating event. You have bills to pay and the money you are getting for worker's compensation was barely making ends meet. And now they tell you that these benefits are going to be terminated. What should you do?

First things first - If you are still injured and out of work, and they stopped paying you, without notice, then they have broken the laws that protect an injured worker. Contact an attorney immediately. We want to help.

What you should do if your application for worker's compensation is denied?
If you followed all of the rules, and you were injured at work, the insurance carrier should not deny your benefits. But often they deny benefits anyway. When this happens, act fast and hire an attorney with experience handling workers compensation claims! There are time limits that apply to your right to compensation.

Can they ever terminate your benefits? The times that a workers compensation insurance company can terminate your benefits include the following:

You are no longer injured and return to work, or are able to return to work
You settle your claim in a lump sum or you agree that you have received full payment and are allowing them to terminate your benefits
They contest your rights and the workers compensation judge agrees with them and ends your benefits.

If you are not sure, you should contact our offices and an attorney can help you determine if the denial or termination was lawful. Just fill out the case form here.
