You are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits even in the absence of your employer’s fault or negligence.The experienced
attorneys at Jones, Damia, Kaufman & DePaul, LLC in Danbury help workers get fair compensation for injuries and illnesses sustained in the workplace. Our attorneys help workers obtain coverage for their workers’ compensation claims, including:

Waiving workers’ compensation
Accepting workers’ compensation limits your rights to other remedies against a negligent employer. A personal injury claim can include compensation for general damages and pain and suffering, whereas a workers’ compensation claim cannot. At Jones, Damia, Kaufman & DePaul, LLC , our attorneys are skilled at analyzing whether you should also pursue a negligent third party.
Appealing workers’ compensation decisions
If your workers’ compensation claim is denied, you have a limited time to appeal the decision. We can help you successfully maneuver through the complex process of appealing to the Connecticut workers’ compensation board.
