Hartford UPS Workers' Compensation Lawyer
Helping Injured UPS Workers in Hartford and Across Connecticut
United Parcel Service (UPS) is one of the largest package delivery companies in the world. With thousands of Connecticut employees working out of facilities in Hartford, Windsor Locks, Wallingford, Watertown, and beyond, UPS workers face daily risks of serious injury. From lifting heavy packages to long delivery routes, UPS jobs are physically demanding and accidents are common.
If you've been hurt while working for UPS in Connecticut, you need an experienced Hartford UPS workers' compensation attorney who understands how UPS and its insurance carrier — often Liberty Mutual — handle claims. At the Law Offices of James F. Aspell, P.C., we've been protecting injured workers since 1986, and we know how to fight for the benefits UPS employees deserve.
Why UPS Workers in Connecticut Need a Workers' Compensation Lawyer
UPS jobs are tough. Whether you're a package handler, tractor-trailer driver, or delivery worker, your daily tasks put enormous strain on your back, shoulders, knees, and joints. Unfortunately, UPS and its insurers often delay, deny, or underpay claims, leaving injured employees frustrated and without the medical care or wage replacement they need.
Attorney Jim Aspell is a Board-Certified Connecticut Workers' Compensation Specialist who has successfully represented hundreds of UPS workers across the Hartford area and statewide. From filing a Form 30C Notice of Claim to appealing a wrongful denial before the Connecticut Workers' Compensation Commission, our firm handles every step.
