Work-related injuries are very common, especially when an individual is working in the construction industry. In fact, 74,300 work-related injuries and illnesses were reported in both private and public workplaces in Connecticut during a one-year study. Injuries can occur from incidents including slips, falls, electrocutions, and flying or falling objects. No matter how minor the injury, it should be reported immediately.

Fighting for the Compensation You Deserve

Our workers’ compensation attorneys can help the injured employee collect damages related to:

• Medical bills
• Disability pay
• Vocational rehabilitation

Workers’ compensation not only covers accidental injuries at work, but it also covers repetitive trauma, such as a back or shoulder injury, or an occupational disease from exposure to dangerous chemicals or substances, such as asbestos.

Workers’ compensation laws help protect individuals who are injured on the job. Connecticut requires all companies to have workers’ compensation insurance to protect their employees. Under these laws, the fault of the employer does not need to be established in order for the employee to collect benefits. An experienced workers’ compensation lawyer will help gather all the facts and defend your case in court.
