In Oklahoma workers’ comp disputes, insurers always have a lawyer

The process begins painfully when a Tulsa employee sustains an on-the-job injury. After you have received medical care and notified your employer of the injury, you can learn that your employer or their insurer has decided to contest the workers’ compensation benefits that are to replace a portion of your wages and cover your health care costs while you heal.

It is then that many Oklahoma workers will ask the Workers’ Compensation Court of Existing Claims to resolve the dispute between you and your employer or between you and your employer’s insurer.

The state says at this point you or your workers’ compensation attorney must at this point file a Motion to Set For Trial.
