Unemployment Insurance Claim Denial? Our Lawyers Can Guide Your Appeal
Unemployment Insurance is a state of Nevada system to provide a basic amount of money for a limited tome to workers who are displaced from their jobs. Unemployment benefits may be denied for a variety of reasons, such as if you were truly fired for your own misconduct, if you quit your job without a good reason, or if you are physically not able and available for work in a new job. You have an obligation to look for new work and accept a new job if it is offered to you. When an unemployment claim is wrongfully denied, most often because you were NOT GUILTY of any misconduct connected to your work, you have the right to appeal the denial and fight for your rights.

Our unemployment lawyers can help you file your request for an appeal and represent you in your unemployment hearing and prepare you for your hearing.
