New Haven Attorneys Handling Pre-Existing Injury In Workers’ Comp Cases

If you have been injured in a work site accident, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits, even if the injury is related to a pre-existing medical condition or prior injury. For example, if you suffer from a known heart condition, you may still be able to recover benefits if you can show that high stress at work contributed to a heart attack.

However, workers’ compensation insurance will not readily approve work injury claims when a known condition exists. In many instances, the initial claim is denied.

Because of the complex nature of these claims, it is to your benefit to hire an experienced attorney from a law firm with the time and resources to effectively fight for your rights.
