Was Your EEOICPA Claim Denied? Don't Give Up.

If you filed on your own and got denied, it can feel like that’s the end of the road. It isn’t. Many EEOICPA claims are denied the first time and successfully overturned on appeal.

Why claims get denied

Denials often come down to incomplete employment records, a diagnosis that wasn’t clearly connected to a covered exposure, or paperwork that didn’t lay out the case the way the Department of Labor needs to see it — not because the underlying claim was invalid.

The appeals process

An appeal isn’t starting over. It’s building a stronger case around the same claim, often with help pulling together employment history, medical documentation, and exposure evidence that wasn’t fully presented the first time.

What an Authorized Representative does

Authorized Representatives specialize in filing and appealing EEOICPA claims. They work on contingency: 2% of your compensation if your claim is approved the first time through, 10% if they win on appeal. Either way, there’s nothing out of your pocket upfront. Energy Employee Services connects clients with experienced ARs and helps coordinate the process.
