Flexible And Timely Assistance
Unemployment issues are difficult to navigate and can take time to figure out. Thousands of Washington workers and residents are burdened with overpayment notices, meaning they have received benefits that the Employment Security Department later decided they should not have received. Many people don’t have the resources to repay the benefits.
If ESD says you have an overpayment, you have the right to appeal. ESD has issued many unfair overpayment notices. Talk to one of our attorneys as soon as possible to discuss your situation, options and rights. We will help you develop a plan.
Overpayment
Some people apply for and receive benefits. Later, the Employment Security Department makes a decision that they should not have received the benefits. In a Determination Letter, the Employment Security Department then asks the claimant to repay the benefits. We can often represent claimants in a hearing where an administrative law judge will reverse the Employment Security Department’s decision requiring the claimant to repay the benefits.

Denial
Some people apply for benefits, and the Employment Security Department wrongfully rejects the claim. We can help our clients exercise their right to contest the denial of benefits.

Petition For Review
If a claimant contests or appeals the decision of the Employment Security Department and the administrative law judge rules against them, the claimant has a right to appeal this decision. This is called a Petition for Review. We help our clients successfully file Petitions for Review.
