If you have a  pre-existing medical condition and have a workplace injury in the same location, you may be entitled to benefits regardless.

If a worker had a previous surgery to a body part and the strenuousness of a job caused a new injury, it is covered as a new accident.

These types of claims, however, tend to be complicated, time-consuming, and nothing you should handle without counsel. This is because insurance companies are looking out for their bottom lines and frequently try to deny these claims by stating that injured workers did not disclose previous conditions or were not fully honest or forthright. Only when employers can demonstrate that the worker did not disclose that he or she had previous injuries when asked, can they deny benefits. You need the best medical opinion and a tough litigation firm to ensure you are not denied benefits.

Because of these complex issues, it is important to understand all issues by partnering with a lawyer. Our team has worked on these types of injuries for years, and we are ready to advocate for you.
