Is it worth fighting an unemployment claim if I get denied?

It depends on where you are in the process. In the first go round, the Kansas Department of Labor may deny your claim so that it can hear evidence between you and your employer. At that stage, if you have a reason to dispute your employer’s account of what happened, you need to request a hearing. If you have already had a hearing, it is unlikely you can challenge the finding. This is why it is important to hire an attorney immediately if you want to challenge the denial of your unemployment claim.
