With primary denials of liability, your only option is to file a claim petition. You should retain an attorney to assist you. WC attorney fees are contingency fees, so there is no cost to you unless something is recovered.

This a very typical fact scenario and we are able to get benefits for most people under these facts. I recommend you contact a work comp attorney. You should act quickly as time is of the essence.
