Nothing is more frustrating than being injured at work — and then having your claim denied. Unfortunately, workers’ comp denials happen often in New Jersey. Here’s how to respond effectively.

Common Reasons for Denied Claims

• Missing deadlines when reporting your injury
• Disputes over whether the injury was “work-related”
• Incomplete or inconsistent medical documentation
• Employer or insurer errors in filing

How to Appeal a Denied Claim

You have the right to appeal a denied claim through the New Jersey Division of Workers’ Compensation. The process includes filing a Claim Petition or an Application for an Informal Hearing. A skilled lawyer can handle the paperwork and represent you before the court.
