FEDERAL WORKERS COMPENSATION ATTORNEY


HELPING INJURED FEDERAL EMPLOYEES GET THE COMPENSATION BENEFITS THEY DESERVE
ACCORDING TO THE FEDERAL EMPLOYEES’ COMPENSATION ACT



Knee & Hip Arthritis is the Silent Occupational Disease No One Talks About


ZALDIVAR LAW

A federal workers’ compensation attorney can guide an injured federal employee
through every step of the process, from the initial filing to the resolution of
the claim, ensuring that their rights are protected and that they receive the
compensation and benefits they deserve.

CALL (954) 994-1232



USPS EMPLOYEES

FECA gives all USPS postal employees (clerks, handlers, letter carriers, etc.)
the right to receive certain medical care benefits and compensation benefits
after an on-the-job injury occurs




TSA EMPLOYEES

The US Department of Labor OWCP program gives all TSA agents the right to
receive certain medical care benefits and compensation benefits after an
on-the-job injury occurs




ALL FEDERAL WORKERS

The Office of Workers’ Compensation Program (OWCP) gives all federal employees
(AFGE, NFFE, etc.) the right to receive certain medical care benefits and
compensation benefits after an on-the-job injury occurs




SCHEDULE AWARDS

A Schedule Award is a form of compensation provided under the Office of Workers’
Compensation Programs (OWCP) for federal employees who suffer a permanent
impairment or loss of use of specific body parts or functions due to a
work-related injury or occupational disease. This award is governed by the
Federal Employees’ Compensation Act (FECA).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

MUST I BE TOTALLY DISABLED IN ORDER TO FILE FOR DISABILITY RETIREMENT?

You do not need to be totally disabled to apply for or receive OPM disability
retirement. The question is whether or not you can perform the job that you were
doing or an accommodated position with your employer. For instance, if you’re a
welder in a federal job and you injure yourself and your requirement is to lift
up to 80 or 100 pounds and you can only lift 50 pounds, you may be able to
receive OPM disability. So that welder is not permanently disabled, but could
very well be entitled to OPM disability retirement.

HOW DO PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS AFFECT FEDERAL WORKERS’ COMPENSATION CLAIMS?

Any individual may have preexisting injuries or difficulties or conditions prior
to their accident. If their on-the-job accident as a federal employee makes that
preexisting condition worse, then it would be covered. It would be up to the
physician to show that the person suffered either temporary exacerbation or
permanent injury to that preexisting condition.

SHOULD I HAVE AN ATTORNEY APPEAL MY FEDERAL WORKERS’ COMPENSATION DENIAL?

In most instances your claim was denied because the Department of Labor, and the
OWCP did not have all the information necessary, or perhaps your claim actually
shouldn’t be approved. Chances are you would need an attorney who understands
the statutes, the case law, and the factual circumstances of your particular
claim to successfully appeal it.

WHY ARE MY MEDICAL BILLS GETTING DENIED FOR MY APPROVED MEDICAL CONDITION?

That can be very frustrating because you got the claim accepted, your actual
condition has been accepted. But what happens oftentimes is the physician may
request a type of treatment that the Department of Labor or the OWCP will not
allow, or it might be a procedure that is either experimental or there might be
other options and treatment. So the denial must be addressed based on the
specificity of the denial.
