Don’t Let a Denied Claim Stand in Your Way Let’s Stand Up for Your Rights

Suffering a serious injury in the workplace generally means you can rely on workers’ compensation to reimburse you for your medical costs and lost wages. However, not all injuries in Connecticut are eligible for workers’ compensation—and sometimes, claims are unjustly denied. Are you having issues with your workers’ compensation claim? If your claim has been denied, we highly recommend you consult with our legal professionals on how best to proceed. To discuss your case with an attorney at our firm, contact Goff Law Group online or call 203-399-0000 for a free consultation.

What Does Workers’ Compensation Cover?

Generally, workers’ compensation covers both work-related injuries and occupational illnesses. Work-related injuries can be either traumatic in nature or incurred over time as a result of repetitive motions. Generally speaking, traumatic injuries are those that result from one-time incidents and on-the-job accidents.

Traumatic Injuries

Workers’ compensation covers one-time accidents that occur within the scope of your job duties, even if you're working off-site. To qualify, the injury must:

  • Require medical attention
  • Be directly related to your job responsibilities

Occupational Illnesses & Repetitive Stress Injuries

Some injuries and illnesses develop over time due to workplace conditions. These may include the following:

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive movements
  • Strains and overuse injuries from heavy lifting or repetitive motions
  • Respiratory diseases from exposure to workplace chemicals
  • Asbestosis & mesothelioma due to asbestos exposure
  • Heat stroke & sunstroke from prolonged outdoor work
  • Hearing loss caused by constant exposure to loud noise

Do You Need a Lawyer for Your Workers’ Compensation Case?

Workers’ compensation is designed to be a no-fault system, meaning you don’t have to prove negligence to receive benefits. However, many legitimate claims are unfairly denied—leaving injured workers without income or coverage for medical bills.

At Goff Law Group, we know the challenges injured workers face and have the experience to fight for the full benefits you deserve. If you’re dealing with a denied claim, delayed payments, or employer disputes, we can help you navigate the process and ensure you get the compensation you need to recover.

What Workers’ Compensation Covers in Connecticut

Workers’ comp benefits cover more than just medical bills. Depending on your injury, you may be entitled to the following:

  • Medical expenses: Covers hospital visits, doctor’s appointments, rehabilitation, prescriptions, and necessary medical equipment.
  • Temporary disability benefits: If you can’t work for a period of time, you may receive up to 75% of your wages.
  • Permanent disability benefits: If your injury prevents you from returning to work permanently, additional benefits may be available.
  • Vocational rehabilitation: Covers job retraining, education, or skill development if your injury prevents you from returning to your previous job.

While workers’ compensation does not cover pain and suffering, our team ensures you receive every benefit you’re entitled to.

How to File a Workers’ Compensation Claim in Connecticut

Filing a workers’ comp claim can feel overwhelming, but taking the right steps early can strengthen your case.

Report Your Injury Immediately

  • Notify your employer as soon as possible.
  • Include details like when, where, and how the injury happened.
  • Delayed reports can lead to denied claims.

Get Medical Treatment

  • Your employer may require you to see a pre-approved doctor.
  • If no doctor is designated, you can choose your own.
  • Be honest and detailed about your injury—your medical records impact your claim.

File a Notice of Claim

Your employer submits the Employer’s First Report of Injury form. You must submit Form 30C to the Workers’ Compensation Commission within one year of the injury or three years from the first symptoms of an occupational disease. Missing deadlines can mean losing your benefits.

Insurance Company Investigation

Once your claim is submitted, the insurance company will do the following:

  • Review medical records
  • Evaluate your wages and work history
  • Order a medical exam
  • Assess your ability to return to work

By law, insurers must approve or deny your claim within 28 days. If approved, you’ll begin receiving payments.
