Our Workers Compensation Appeals Practice

We handle all matters related to appeals of a denied workers’ compensation claim, regardless of the stage of the process you are in. We will help you prepare for the Benefit Review Conference (BRC), whether a dispute resolution officer will act as a mediator in your case.

If the BRC does not result in a mutually agreeable settlement, your claim will be scheduled for a Contested Case Hearing (a CCH). In a Contested Case Hearing, the hearings officer can listen to testimony from witnesses, and will eventually render a decision. If you are dissatisfied with the ruling at the CCH, you can file an appeal to a three judge panel, which will conduct a review of the transcripts, provided the appeal is filed within 15 days. If you are still displeased with the result, you can take your claims to the District Court of Appeals and to the Texas Supreme Court, if necessary.

Contact Us

Don’t stop fighting just because your initial workers’ compensation claim has been denied. We will aggressively protect your rights on appeal. Contact us or call us anytime, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to set up an appointment. Your first meeting is without cost or obligation. Se habla español.
