However, employers may try to deny valid claims, offer less compensation than is fair, or even intimidate workers into not filing claims. If you have been injured at work or while conducting business, make sure you have an Iowa Worker's Compensation Attorney on your side that understands workers' comp legal issues and is willing to fight for your claim. 2.

It is extremely important that you have an advocate who understands insurance company games and who will ensure that you are compensated for your accident and injuries.
