Legal Help with Workers' Compensation Claims in Connecticut
In many cases involving a workplace injury, the injured worker receives full and fair financial compensation from the workers' compensation system — without running into any trouble.
However, in other cases, the worker — or his or her family — may find that their claim is denied, or the amount of compensation is lowered in a way that seems unfair.
If your workers' compensation claim has been denied, or if you believe you are otherwise being treated unfairly by the workers' compensation system, seek early legal advice. Otherwise, you run the risk of accepting a payout that does not accurately reflect the full extent of your injuries.
20 Years' Experience With Connecticut Workers' Compensation Claims
From our offices in New Haven, Connecticut, the law firm of Kennedy, Johnson, D'Elia, & Gillooly, L.L.C., represents employees with workers' compensation claims in all districts throughout Connecticut.
Our AV®-rated* law firm focuses exclusively on representing injured people in personal injury lawsuits and workers' compensation claims. Our attorneys have more than 150 years' combined experience aggressively advocating for the rights of injured people to receive full and fair compensation for their injuries.
Kennedy, Johnson, D'Elia, & Gillooly, L.L.C., recently successfully resolved a workers' compensation claim on behalf of a widow and her children. The insurance company originally denied the claim for benefits, arguing that the employee was on his lunch break when the fatal accident occurred. Our attorneys were able to obtain full benefits for the widow and her children. Read more about our recent settlements and verdicts.
In workers' compensation cases, we engage the workers' compensation insurance company aggressively as early as possible. At the same time, we explore the possibility that our client may have the right to bring a separate private lawsuit against any third party — unassociated with the employer — who was partially at fault for the accident. These third-party workplace injury lawsuits are especially common in workplace injuries involving motor vehicle accidents or construction site accidents.
Our goal is to resolve the workers' compensation claim as efficiently as possible, to remove a source of stress from our clients' lives — enabling them to focus on recovery, returning to work and supporting their families.
