You say that you've just received notice from workers comp -- they're denying or discontinuing something -- and you don't know what it is?
You're asking yourself: How can they do this? Don't they know how sore I am? Don't they know I have bills to pay? Do they think they're smarter than my own doctor? Do they think I'm faking or enjoy being this way?
Hello, I'm Mark Wolf, a workers' compensation attorney from St. Paul, MN, and president of Mark W. Wolf, LLC. I've been at this game for a little while, so I know just how difficult it can be to deal with an insurer.
Sometimes the insurance company gets it right. In that case, my job is to tell you why they're right, even if it seems to conflict with your own logic, ... or go against your doctor's advice.
Sometimes they make accidental mistakes, like sending your check to Outer Mongolia instead of to your home on Asbury Lane.
But too often they make intentional mistakes, such as denying your claim before making a careful investigation of the facts.
You don't have to fight workers comp. You can take what they give you and ride off into the sunset.
You can try to fight them by yourself. No one mandates that you hire a lawyer. In fact, the original intent of the Minnesota legislature was to create a system so easy that every injured employee could handle his or her own case
Good luck with that!

1) We'll meet you at our office, or we'll come to you -- we'll meet you at your home, in a restaurant, a coffee shop, a library -- shhh, don't talk too loud, your daughter's hockey game, or your son's basketball tournament, where- ever it's convenient for you.
2) If you live in Greater Minnesota, we'll handle your case by correspondence or we'll consider a road trip.
3) We offer personal attention -- you'll get the lawyer you talked to on the phone or met at your first consult, and not some young associate whom you've never met.
