Workers' Compensation

Helping You Seek the Compensation You Need

Do you need legal assistance because you have been injured at work? Have you already tried to work with your employer, only to find more obstacles to overcome? Were you granted workers' compensation benefits, only to be cut off by your employer's insurance company? Do you know all of the benefits that you are entitled to?

The attorneys at Bellenot & Boufford, LLC can help. We have 20 years of experience handling workers' compensation cases for clients in Fairfield County, New Haven County and the surrounding areas of Connecticut. We will dedicate our experience to helping you find peace of mind.

What Line of Work Were You Injured In?

Serious injuries, ranging from shoulder, knee and other joint injuries to neck and back injuries, can occur in all lines of work. Our lawyers can handle compensation cases for workers in every trade, including:

  • Construction workers
  • Nurses, nurses' aides and other medical care employees
  • Factory workers
  • Police officers and corrections officers

Many individuals try to handle their workers' compensation claim on their own. Unfortunately, this can lead to important benefits being missed. Our attorneys take great care to see that no benefits are left out, including commonly overlooked items such as mileage reimbursements. We will also determine whether a third party personal injury claim can be filed to obtain additional compensation above and beyond what is provided by workers' compensation benefits.

Dealing With the Workers' Compensation Insurance Company

All too often, employers and insurance companies will deny that a worker was injured or that a worker was injured as bad as the individual believes. They may try to deny that the injury happened at the workplace. Even when a case is accepted, many people have trouble collecting out of work payments in a timely manner. We gather the medical and other evidence needed to combat these denials. If the insurer denies or delays workers' compensation payments, our lawyers will see that they are held accountable and that you get your benefits.

Workers' Compensation Cases are Handled on a Contingency Basis

This means that you are not required to pay attorneys fees unless your case is a success.
