What is workers’ compensation, and how does it work?

Workers’ compensation is insurance that provides benefits to employees injured on the job. It typically covers medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation. We’ll help you file a claim and ensure you receive all the benefits you’re entitled to.

How long do I have to file a workers’ compensation claim?

In Connecticut, you generally have one year from the date of the injury to file a workers’ compensation claim. It’s important to act quickly, so don’t hesitate to reach out to us for guidance.

Can I get compensation if the injury was my fault?

Yes! Workers’ compensation is a no-fault system, meaning even if you were partially responsible for the accident, you can still receive benefits. We’ll guide you through the process to ensure your rights are protected.

Can I file a claim if I’ve already returned to work?

Yes, you can still file a claim after returning to work. It’s important to document your injury and any continuing issues you may have. We’ll help you navigate the process to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
