Workers’ Compensation Denials

Receiving a denial notice after filing a workers’ compensation claim can feel like a crushing blow–but it’s not the end of the road. In fact, many valid claims are initially denied due to incomplete paperwork, missed deadlines, or disputes over the cause of injury. At the Law Firm of Kevin A. Moore, we know how to fight back against wrongful denials.

Our skilled Illinois workers’ compensation attorney will review your case in detail, identify any errors or gaps, and build a strong appeal on your behalf. Whether your claim was denied due to preexisting conditions, lack of immediate medical treatment, or employer retaliation, we have the knowledge and resources needed to help turn things around. We’ll represent you at every stage of the appeals process, from arbitration through potential Commission hearings. You deserve a fair chance at the benefits you’re entitled to–and we’re here to help you get them.

Workers’ Compensation Fraud

At the Law Firm of Kevin A. Moore, we take workers’ compensation fraud seriously. Filing a false claim or exaggerating an injury is not only unethical–it’s a crime that carries severe penalties. We strongly urge every injured worker to be completely honest throughout the claims process. That said, we also recognize that false accusations of fraud can happen, and they can be just as damaging. If you’ve been wrongfully accused of workers’ comp fraud, our firm can help defend your rights and reputation.

The Law Firm of Kevin A. Moore can examine the allegations against you, gather supporting medical documentation, and present a strong case to show that your claim is legitimate. Whether the accusation comes from an employer, an insurance company, or another source, we’ll fight to protect your future. Being falsely accused is frightening, but you don’t have to face it alone. We’re here to make sure the truth comes to light–and justice is served

The Workers’ Compensation Process in Illinois

In Illinois, the workers’ compensation process typically begins with notifying your employer of your injury or illness as soon as possible–ideally in writing. From there, your employer should initiate a claim with their insurance provider. However, even at this early stage, mistakes or delays can occur, and that’s where we come in. We will ensure your claim is properly documented, supported by solid medical evidence, and positioned for approval.

Should your claim be delayed, disputed, or denied, we will step in to represent you during negotiations, arbitration, and, if necessary, before the Illinois Workers’ Compensation Commission. We’ll fight for the benefits you need and deserve while keeping you informed through every step of the process.
