The North Carolina General Assembly administers the workers' compensation program. The NC Industrial Commission (IC) is the court where the workers' compensation claims are decided. As your lawyer, David will represent you through the claims process. Clients generally seek legal counsel after their initial claim has been denied. The claim can be denied for a variety of reasons. The IC may claim that the accident "did not occur under the law" or claim the injured worker did not give timely notice. Whatever the circumstances, our firm is fully prepared to represent injured workers throughout the workers' compensation claim process.
