You have worked hard to contribute to the success of your employer. Your skills, training and efforts have been invaluable in helping your employer deliver on its commitments to its customers.

Benefits offered under workers' compensation include medical services, temporary disability compensation (time loss), permanent disability compensation and vocational rehabilitation. In all cases, strict time limits apply. You only have 60 days to reply if you receive a denial letter or a notice of closure.

Do not jeopardize your right to compensation by failing to respond within the legal time limit. Instead, contact an experienced workers' compensation lawyer immediately. Attorney Martin Alvey can appeal your denied claim by:

  • Working with your physician. The doctor providing primary care for your injury will ultimately determine the amount of time you need off from work and determine whether you are disabled and to what extent.
  • Preparing your appeal. A thorough investigation can prove the cause and extent of your injuries or disability.
  • Attending your hearings and advocating for your rights

There are No Out-of-Pocket Costs if You Prevail.

Oregon law mandates that your employer's workers' compensation insurance pay attorney's fees for the overturning of denied claims. You are not responsible for out-of-pocket expenses if you prevail.
