Anyone else feel completely lost after their work injury was denied?

[Natalie Whitman]

So I’ve been dealing with this shoulder injury for months now, thought I had everything in order with the insurance company, and then out of nowhere I get a letter saying my claim is denied because they’re claiming it wasn’t work-related. I’m a delivery driver, I lift packages all day, and the pain started right after a particularly heavy week—it’s not like I was doing anything else. Now I’m sitting here with medical bills piling up and my boss acting like he doesn’t know me. I finally realized I can’t keep trying to argue with them on my own, so I started looking into finding a workers comp lawyer New Paltz NY area to at least get someone on my side who knows how to push back on these denials. Just wondering if anyone else has gone through this and if having an attorney actually made the insurance company start taking you seriously again.
