Q:  Why should I hire an attorney in a workers compensation case when the insurance company is already paying my benefits?

 

A: Because sooner than later the insurance company will stop paying you benefits.  You will need to get some answers to your questions as why they stopped paying and what can I do next.  If you already hired Derzon & Menard to represent you while the case just started, we would have gathered the medical records.  Derzon & Menard would have already communicated with your doctors and requested a WKC-16-B form so we can file for a hearing sooner than later.  Remember time is on the side of the insurance company.  Lastly, Derzon & Menard does not collect a fee unless there is a dispute.
