I was injured on the job at the beginning of last year. We had absolutely no money in savings, no secondary income of any kind, and no family members we could ask for money.

Credit was good, so we ended up taking out a personal loan. Both my wife and I knew that money wouldn’t last long. I sent off my Workers Comp claim papers quickly, expecting an equally quick response.

As is the case with many other people I’ve talked to in a similar situation, the process was anything but quick. My initial Workers Comp claim was denied.

My wife and I were horrified. Despite her own medical problems, she began working a night job. All the while, my employer was threatening to terminate my employment entirely if I didn’t return to work. A friend told me this wasn’t legal, and encouraged me to look into hiring a Workers Comp Lawyer Houston.

I figured that even if I didn’t pay to get help with my Workers Comp paperwork, it would at least be a good idea to get some hourly advice.

I went to a law firm in Houston called Ogletree Abbott. I read online that they were caring Workers Comp lawyers who fight for their clients. I was afraid that I wouldn’t get the maximum Workers Comp benefits, so I also wanted to ask them for advice and help on that.

I actually ended up using them to help fill out and file my appeal paperwork. The Workers Comp appeal was accepted, and I ended up getting a ton more benefits than I thought I would! I'm glad I called a Texas workers comp attorney.

I would encourage anyone in a similar situation to contact Ogletree Abbott at 1-800-779-4950. You’ll be so glad you did. You don’t want to gamble your family’s future on possibilities. An experienced Workers Comp Lawyer Houston is the person to go to with your claim.
