More Than 30 Years of Connecticut  Workers' Compensation Experience

Our workers' compensation lawyers handle denied claims and lump-sum settlements in workers' compensation claims, and third-party liability lawsuits with multiple defendants resulting from:
  • Workplace accidents – In factories and warehouses, on construction sites, from collapsed scaffolding and malfunctioning equipment, car and truck accidents in company vehicles, delivery persons who suffer slip-and-fall injuries and dog bites, refinery explosions
  • Workplace injuries – Repetitive stress, back and neck injuries, severe burns, broken bones, brain and spinal cord injury, paralysis, loss of hearing and vision

Depending on the circumstances that led to your workplace injury, you may be able to seek compensation from a third party that contributed to it. After a construction site accident, for example, an additional claim may be filed against a product manufacturer, building engineer or delivery truck driver.

Regardless of the dimensions your work accident takes on, James F. Aspell, P.C. explores avenue to secure the short-term or long-range benefits you need.

How Much Workers' Comp Would You Get If Injured or Killed At Work?

An injured worker could find that a claim he or she filed to secure benefits, is denied. In other situations, the injured worker may not receive all of the money to which they are entitled. When these assessments are incorrect, the employee may seek legal assistance from a lawyer.

Following approval of a benefits claim, the injured worker can select a treating physician and their medical care will be paid for by the workers compensation insurance company.  If you lose more than 3 days without working due to injuries or illness, the insurance company will also provide you with temporary disability payments as compensation for your lost wages. 

A worker can successfully secure workers' compensation benefits to pay for medical care and lost wages, and  he or she will have the financial lifeline required to get through the difficult period following a serious accident.

What Is Connecticut Workers' Compensation And How Does It Work?

Connecticut  provides workers' compensation benefits to individuals who have been harmed or injured at or due to their jobs. This compensation includes coverage of medical care, up to 70 percent of lost wages due to recovery time and may also include monetary awards if someone is disabled as a result of their injury.

Before an individual can claim workers' compensation benefits, they must meet certain eligibility requirements. These include having an injury that occurs as a result of their job, but it does not have to take place at their employer's location. For example, individuals injured while travelling for work may still claim benefits. Any claim for workers compensation benefits must be made within one year of the date of injury with certain exceptions.
