A claim may be denied by the insurance company for a variety of reasons. But this is just the beginning of the fight. Once a claim is controverted by the insurance carrier it should be expedited with a “pre-hearing” conference scheduled at the Workers’ Compensation Board within 30 days of the filing of the Notice of Controversy. At that conference the issues are laid out and a trial is scheduled.
The attorneys of Bangel, Cohen & Falconetti, have been working with people all over New York, from Queens to Rochester, to get workers the benefits they require. If you believe the insurance company denied your benefits while you still needed them, we will be there for you.
The Cost Of Your Well-Being
Your health cannot be reduced to a finite dollar amount. However, insurance companies’ entire business is looking for that number and holding you to it. In doing so they can go too far. If that happens we will fight back on your behalf to put you back in control of your treatment.
