If it is a new injury, you should not be denied workers' compensation. However, if they simply don't pay the claim or if they blame it on the earlier injury and don't pay, your only remedy is to file a petition with the agency. I suggest you do this with the help of an experienced workers' compensation attorney. Check out my website at www.sternlawfirm.com. If you think that I can be of assistance, give me a call.
