lien recovery

At Girgis & Associates, our lien recovery services include recovery of bill review reductions, recovery after award, penalties and interest petition filing, and compromise and release of cases. Let our expert team navigate and collect what is due for you.

Recovery of Bill Review Reductions: Bill review reductions are compensable and recoverable with our unique techniques. If your bills have been reduced by a third party review company and partial payment was recommended and remitted, we have the solution for you! Our experts have a high success rate in recovering the balance reduction.

Recovery After Award: All awards are calendared to ensure prompt payment. Follow-up action is taken as needed, including obtaining penalties and interest when appropriate. We will also file petitions for cost and sanctions against carriers when needed.

Penalties and Interest: GIRGIS & ASSOCIATES, INC., will file the appropriate petition with the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board for 10% penalty & 7-10% interest on your lien according to the Division of Industrial Accident Rules & Regulations.

Compromise & Release: When case(s) are settled by direct payment from the employer's carrier to the injured worker or his/her representative attorney, quite often the only means of payment to the lien claimant is from the carrier directly. All too often in a second round of negotiations results, especially if the lien is settled by (C&R), the Judge may reduce a lien. To navigate through this procedure requires expertise which Girgis & Associates provides on how to compute the potential case value using the current applicable law.

UNLESS CASE VALUES ARE CHALLENGED PROPERLY, LIENS MAY BE IMPROPERLY REDUCED OR ELIMINATED. By allowing GIRGIS & ASSOCIATES, INC., to process your claim the Hospital/Medical Provider's staff is free of this consuming and unnecessary additional negotiation and risk.
