Connecticut Workers' Compensation Lawyer
Representing Injured Workers in Claims for Benefits
If you have been injured at work or on the job in Connecticut, you may already know how difficult it is to get the workers' compensation benefits and medical treatment you deserve. In Connecticut, employers often control which doctors their injured employees see. Often these physicians have the employer's best interests in mind. They may limit the treatment you receive or try to send you back to work before you are fully recovered.
In addition, insurance companies routinely deny and delay benefits, even if you have a valid claim. They will not volunteer to provide you with your entitled benefits, such as permanent partial disability benefits. You need to have a working knowledge and understanding of the workers' compensation laws to obtain your rightful compensation. At the Law Offices of Wesley M. Malowitz, I have this knowledge and understanding, and I will work to maximize the benefits you receive from the insurance company in your workers' compensation claim.

What injuries are covered under workers' compensation laws?
In general, any injury which occurs during the course and scope of one's employment is a compensable workers' comp injury. This includes injuries at one's place of employment as well as injuries which occur away from work if they are related to your employment. I am experienced in all work-related injuries, including:
Fees in Workman's Compensation Claims
All workers' compensation cases are taken on a contingency fee basis. This means that I do not receive attorney's fees unless I recover benefits for you. Costs are not contingent upon the outcome of your case.
In Connecticut, the percentage which an attorney receives in payment for legal services is fixed by law. This means that you will pay the same attorney's fees regardless of which attorney you hire - so it is in your interests to retain an experienced, skilled and knowledgeable workers' compensation attorney such as myself.
Act Quickly to Protect Your Right to Work Comp Benefits
If you have been injured on the job or while at work, the state of Connecticut limits the period you have to file for benefits. Therefore, it is important to consult an experienced workers' compensation lawyer right away.
