Heather Tanaka

Heather Tanaka works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. If your case is successful, the attorney's fee is a percentage of your settlement or award — typically 15–25% in Oklahoma. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Heather Tanaka handles all types of workers' compensation cases in Oklahoma, including Permanent Disability, Workers Compensation, Employer Retaliation, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.

In Oklahoma, you generally must report your injury to your employer within 30 days and file a formal claim within 1–2 years of the injury date. These deadlines are strict — missing them can cost you your benefits. Contact Heather immediately after any workplace injury.

Yes — claim denials are one of Heather Tanaka's specialties. Insurance companies routinely deny valid claims hoping workers won't fight back. With 15 years of experience in Oklahoma workers' comp law, Heather knows exactly how to appeal denials and fight for the benefits you're entitled to.

Heather Tanaka primarily serves clients in Ponca City and the surrounding Oklahoma area, but handles cases throughout the state. If you're in Oklahoma and were injured at work, contact Heather's office for a free consultation regardless of your location.
