Texas Workers' Compensation Claim Denial Attorneys

Houston Workers' Comp Delay Attorney

Some of our Texas law firm's largest monetary recoveries have been for work injury victims who suffered unfair denials and delays of their workers' compensation claims. Do you need a proven Texas workers' compensation claim denial lawyer who will take you seriously, treat you with respect and take action if an insurer has acted in bad faith and violated the law? Please contact us today for caring, knowledgeable counsel.

Wins at Trial Have Produced Six-Figure and Seven-Figure Verdicts

In our experience, the strategies insurance companies use to avoid paying a significant workers' compensation claim are appalling. On several occasions, Texas juries have clearly agreed and delivered verdicts accordingly after we presented compelling evidence.

We have obtained sizable recoveries in workers' comp disputes involving insurers such as:

To cite a few examples, our legal team takes pride in having won:

  • A jury award of more than $1.3 million in damages for our client Jerome Ryan, who suffered a severe shoulder injury working as a sandblaster, only to have lost-income and medical benefits unreasonably delayed by Zurich
  • A $750,000 jury verdict in favor of Lance Morris, a volunteer fireman whose need for spinal surgery was denied by Texas Mutual
  • A jury verdict of nearly $400,000 for Timothy Ruttiger, injured on the job in a lifting accident, whose need for surgery was also initially denied by Texas Mutual

Turn to Attorneys Dedicated to Helping Injured Workers and Struggling Families

Few injured workers can afford to wait for workers' compensation benefits, and dealing with sharp insurance adjusters can be intimidating. Our attorneys will not be intimidated, and we are extremely aggressive in seeking damages because we know consequences can include:

  • Permanent, irreversible physical damage due to inability to get and pay for quality medical care — sometimes making it impossible to return to work for years or a lifetime
  • Financial ruin for an individual or entire family, often including a mortgage foreclosure, bankruptcy and permanent damage to credit
  • Life-changing personal consequences, including divorce

Winning compensation for the tremendous damage a workers' compensation claim denial or delay can do is a clear strength for our legal team. If you have been hurt on the job and then forced to battle an insurance company to get the medical care, lost wages and other compensation you were entitled to, our attorneys want to hear your story and try to help.
