Waterbury Workers' Compensation Lawyer

Workers' Compensation Appeals

When an injured worker is denied workers' comp benefits the consequences can be severe. A denial of your benefits can leave you unable to earn wages while at the same time facing financial ruin as a result of medical bills along with your everyday expenses. The process can seem very unfair, but it is important to remember that you do have rights. A skilled and experienced Waterbury personal injury attorney from my firm will aggressively fight for your rights. My firm has been tirelessly protecting the rights of injured workers for over 22 years. I fully understand what is required to successfully appeal a workers' comp denial and am devoted to helping my clients achieve results. I will thoroughly evaluate your case to ensure that your rights were not violated.

If your employer or insurer denies your claim, they have to meet certain administrative and legal requirements. For example they must provide a written notice of denial within 28 days of when you filed your claim. After you have received notice, you have the right to appeal the decision at an informal hearing where you also have the right to present evidence and testimony to establish that you did suffer a work related injury or illness. The Law Office of Thomas L. Brayton, III is very knowledgeable in worker's comp hearing procedures and will utilize all possible resources, including expert witnesses, to vigorously pursue a successful appeal on your behalf.
