Workers’ compensation laws tend to favor victims. Still, satisfying the rules the state of Texas has established is essential to collecting compensation.

To be eligible for workers comp in San Antonio, the following must be true:

You worked for the employer at the time of your injury. This can include part-time employees.
Your employer carries workers’ compensation insurance.
Your workplace injuries were sustained, or your illness developed as a direct result of on-the-job duties or exposure.

Denials for Workers Comp Claims

[/fusion_title][fusion_text animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_delay=”0″ hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” sticky_display=”normal,sticky”]

Unfortunately, although you must satisfy only a few qualifications, obtaining workers’ comp benefits in San Antonio is often difficult. That’s because there are many circumstances in which you might be denied based on the filing process, the actions of others, or the unique nature of your injuries.

Some common reasons why workers’ compensation benefits are denied include the following:

Unfortunately, it is all too common for victims to be denied compensation on their first try. This is typically due to amateur filing errors and failure to secure legal representation from our personal injury attorney. Without an attorney, many victims fail to realize the power of an appeal after a denial. Instead, they often opt to start the process all over again from scratch.

However, this is unnecessary and only further protracts the waiting period to obtain your benefits. Working with a San Antonio work comp lawyer will help streamline this process.

If your claim was denied, your attorney will work with you to determine the problem. Once we do, we will file an appeal on your behalf and prove why you are, in fact, eligible for and deserving of workers’ compensation benefits.

Workers’ compensation is a complicated area of Texas law, so we have answered a few common questions below. Don’t hesitate to contact our firm if you have any other questions or concerns.

[/fusion_text][fusion_accordion border_size=”1″ title_tag=”h4″ hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” type=”toggles” title_color=”var(–awb-color4)” icon_box_color=”var(–awb-color4)”][fusion_toggle title=” Are Texas employers required to carry workers comp insurance?” open=”no”]

No. Texas is the only U.S. state that doesn’t require employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance. However, many employers in San Antonio choose to carry it to avoid personal injury lawsuits from injured employees.

If your employer doesn’t carry workers comp insurance, you can choose to file a personal injury claim to recover the damages you need.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Can I recover workers comp if my spouse died in a work accident?” open=”no”]

Yes. One of the benefits under the Texas workers comp system provides for compensation to surviving spouses, children, or other dependents of an employee who is killed in a work accident. This is meant to make up for lost household income. A qualified attorney can help you make sure you get the benefits you’re owed.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What if my San Antonio work accident was my fault?” open=”no”]

Unlike personal injury claims, workers comp claims in Texas don’t really consider fault. Workers comp benefits should be awarded without regard to who was at fault for your work accident as long as your injuries occurred while you were performing the duties of your employment.
