OFFICE OF WORKERS COMPENSATION (OWCP)
The Office of Workers Compensation (OWCP) handles all workers compensation claims filed by federal employees. The OWCP has a very complex and bureaucratic structure and for an employee or other novice to the system it can be very difficult to navigate through OWCP rules and regulations.
I have handled hundreds of OWCP matters over the last several years, straightening out disagreements and disputes, obtaining beneficial medical evaluations and convincing the OWCP to increase disability ratings and benefits awarded. If you are contemplating filing an OWCP claim or are having difficulty with an existing claim, I can help you obtain the maximum benefits to which you are entitled.
For more information about OWCP claims, the U.S. Department of Labor publishes a list of questions and answers on their web site.
