"In a world where tort reform has made it extremely difficult for individuals to seek redress under the law, expenses can exceed the amount individual are allowed to recover. Often individuals are forced to become part of a class action suit in which they only people who make money are the attorneys. In this legal climate, we are fortunate to have attorney firms such as Doyle Raizner who are not only very knowledgeable in their field and good that their jobs, but also actually care about their clients. I highly recommend them."

Workers' Compensation Bad Faith Litigation Lawyers
A psychiatric ward nurse was assaulted by a patient, leaving him with a permanent injury. The workers' compensation insurance company delayed paying his claim for 18 months. The unwarranted delay compounded his original injury. Our attorneys took his workers' compensation bad faith case to court, where we won a $4.3 million jury verdict on behalf of our injured client.
If your valid workers' compensation claim was delayed or denied, if your payments were cancelled without a valid reason, or your payments were unfairly stalled while you fought for your benefits and won, you may be the victim of workers' compensation insurance bad faith. At Doyle Raizner in Houston, Texas, our insurance bad faith attorneys have achieved impressive results for clients who were injured in the workplace and suffered damages because their workers' compensation benefits were wrongfully denied.
Benefits Unjustly Delayed
Delaying or denying a valid workers' compensation claim is an example of insurance bad faith—a failure on the part of the workers' comp insurance company to pay covered benefits.
If your claim has been determined valid by the state workers' compensation process and the insurance company has refused or failed to pay it, or if the delay in payment has caused additional harm, our attorneys will file an insurance bad faith lawsuit. We don't just insist that the insurance company pay the benefits it was supposed to all along. We recover financial compensation for the damages caused by the delay.
Delayed or denied workers' compensation claims can be devastating to injured workers. Workers can lose their homes, cars, health, life savings, and retirement funds.. Clients often come to us in frustration, too injured to work and unable to get the benefits the state has found them legally entitled to receive.
How can a physically and financially injured worker take on a powerful insurance company? The attorneys of Doyle Raizner take great pride in getting results for injured clients who have been unjustly denied their workers' compensation benefits by insurance bad faith.
