Nationwide Legal Support for Injured ICE Agents and Employees
At Federal Workers’ Compensation Representatives, we proudly support Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and civilian staff who are injured on the job.

That’s where we step in.
With over 35 years of experience, our ICE workers’ compensation attorney and representatives are here to help you file a claim, appeal a denial, or understand your full benefit rights. We provide national support for all injured ICE workers, including field agents, administrative personnel, and support staff, starting with a free consultation.
Understanding Workers’ Compensation for ICE Employees
Workers’ compensation for ICE employees is governed by the Federal Employees’ Compensation Act (FECA) and administered by the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP). Unlike private or state workers’ comp systems, federal claims involve strict rules, complex medical evidence, and multiple stages of review.
Our legal team helps ICE workers with:
- Initial claim filing and OWCP documentation.
- Medical treatment delays or authorization denials.
- Schedule award evaluations and disputes.
- Appeals of denied claims.
- Long-term disability and return-to-work coordination.
Whether you were injured in a single event or suffer from a condition developed over time, our ICE injury attorney and representatives will work with you to protect your rights and build a strong, fact-based claim, beginning with a free consultation.

Common Injuries and Conditions Among ICE Employees
ICE agents and personnel face unique job-related hazards that often result in physical and psychological injuries.
Our firm helps clients with a wide range of conditions, including:
- Traumatic injuries from physical confrontations or accidents.
- Back and joint injuries from repetitive movement or long hours on duty.

- Respiratory illness or toxic exposure during raids or facility work.

Injured ICE workers deserve medical care, wage loss support, and long-term recovery resources. We’re here to make sure those benefits are delivered.
ICE Workers’ Compensation Benefits You May Be Entitled To
Every injury—whether physical or psychological—affects individuals and their families in different ways. Some recover quickly, while others face lasting health challenges, financial strain, or an inability to return to the same line of work. No matter the nature of your injury, if it was caused by or worsened through your federal employment with ICE, you are entitled to seek the full compensation you deserve.
With help from an experienced ICE workers’ comp lawyer and our skilled representatives, you may recover:
- Wage loss benefits for temporary or permanent disability.
- Medical treatment including surgery, therapy, prescriptions, and follow-up care.
- Schedule awards for permanent impairment to a body part.
- Vocational rehabilitation when returning to a different position is necessary.
- Back pay from delayed or denied benefits.
We walk our clients through each benefit, making sure no financial or medical support is overlooked.
Why ICE Workers’ Comp Claims Are Often Denied
Receiving a denial from the Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs can be devastating, especially after everything you’ve endured physically, emotionally, and financially. It can feel like the system is turning its back on the people it was designed to protect.
Even with apparent job-related injuries, ICE workers’ compensation claims can be denied due to:
- Insufficient medical documentation.
- Disputes over whether the injury occurred on duty.
- Alleged pre-existing conditions.
- Delays in filing or missing required forms.
- Errors by the employing agency in reporting the incident.
A denial is not the end of your workers’ comp journey. In many cases, it’s just the beginning of a strong appeal, with the proper legal support on your side. Our ICE employees’ workers’ comp lawyer will identify weaknesses in the OWCP decision, gather strong evidence, and fight to have your claim approved.
