Connecticut Union Worker Injury Attorney

Protecting Union Members Injured on the Job Across Connecticut

If you're a union member injured at work, your rights — and your benefits — may look different than those of other workers. Union contracts often provide enhanced protections, including wage continuation, health coverage, and grievance rights that go above and beyond standard Connecticut workers' compensation laws.

But those benefits don't always come automatically. You need an experienced attorney who understands the intersection of collective bargaining agreements and Connecticut workers' compensation law.

At the Law Offices of James F. Aspell, P.C., we've earned a reputation as Connecticut's trusted legal advocate for injured union workers. We know your contract. We know the system. And most importantly — we know how to fight for you.

We Represent Union Members from Every Trade

With over 30 years of experience, Attorney James F. Aspell has successfully represented union members across a wide range of industries, including:

If you belong to a labor union and were injured on the job — whether in Hartford, New Britain, or anywhere across Connecticut — you may be entitled to additional benefits not available to non-union workers.

Understanding Your Unique Benefits and Grievance Rights

Many union contracts include continuation of health insurance, injury leave, grievance procedures, and job security clauses — but you may need to coordinate these rights with a pending workers' comp claim. Missteps or oversights could cost you thousands.

We help union members:

  • Identify and coordinate contract-based and state-level benefits

  • Protect grievance rights while pursuing workers' compensation

  • Ensure you receive full wage replacement and medical coverage

  • Navigate return-to-work and job protection clauses

Don't Let Inexperience Cost You Your Benefits
