Workers’ Compensation Attorneys in Connecticut
Protecting the Rights of Injured Workers Across Eastern Connecticut
Have you been injured on the job? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to face this difficult time by yourself. At Pazz Injury Law, we proudly represent injured workers throughout Connecticut in their workers’ compensation claims. Our mission is simple: to fight for the medical treatment, financial support, and legal rights you are entitled to under the law.
What Is Workers’ Compensation?
The Connecticut Workers’ Compensation Act was created to support employees who suffer job-related injuries or illnesses. This system is designed to provide:
- Medical care
- Wage replacement
- Vocational rehabilitation
- Disability benefits
However, while the law exists to protect you, insurance companies often work hard to limit or deny your benefits. They may minimize your injury, delay your payments, or question your right to care altogether. That’s where we step in.
The workers compensation act is designed to provide injured workers financial and medical support to get better and get back to work. Workers compensation claims also involve insurance adjusters and attorneys who often times try to minimize the benefits that you’re entitled to or deny any benefits at all. Our firm stands up for the rights and benefits that you may be entitled to. Workers compensation claims are handled on a contingency basis. Thus, it doesn’t cost you anything until we are able to get you certain benefits or settle your workers compensation claim.
When an injury occurs at work, the first and most important step is to notify your employer right away. In Connecticut, delays in reporting your injury can complicate your workers’ compensation claim or even jeopardize your right to benefits. Whether it’s a sudden accident or a repetitive stress injury, be sure to submit a written report as soon as symptoms appear. This creates a documented record of your injury and starts the legal process to protect your rights.
Even if your injury seems minor at first, it’s essential to see a medical professional immediately. Not only is your health the top priority, but prompt medical attention also creates a clear and timely record of your condition, which is critical for your claim. The longer you wait, the more difficult it becomes to connect your injury to the workplace. Follow your doctor’s recommendations and keep copies of all medical records and treatment plans.
Connecticut law requires injured workers to submit Form 30C to the Workers’ Compensation Commission in the district where they reside. This step is not optional—it’s the legal notice that starts your claim. You must file within one year of your injury, or within three years if it’s an occupational illness. Without this form, your claim may be denied, regardless of your injury. Filing correctly and on time is essential—and we can help ensure it’s done right.
Once your injury is reported and medical care is underway, it’s time to get legal representation. At Pazz Injury Law, our experienced Connecticut workers’ compensation attorneys will guide you through every step—from paperwork to hearings—while you focus on your recovery. We handle negotiations with employers, insurers, and medical providers, and we fight for the full benefits you deserve. With no upfront fees, there’s no risk to reach out for help.

We interviewed several CT law personal injury firms, both big and small, and the Pazz Law had just the right balance and was the clear choice as our personal injury law firm. It was an excellent decision.
First, outstanding results. Attorney Pazz negotiated a 400% increase over what was the insurance company originally offered. Second, incredible communication. Our case was handled by the principal attorney at the firm, not some inexperienced associate.
Attorney Pazz is supported by a first rate support team, including a great paralegal team (Kim is outstanding) that keeps everything organized and on track with the help of cutting edge technology.
We believe that the Pazz law firm secret sauce is that they really do care about you as an individual and what you are going through as a car accident victim. It is great to have them as your legal advocate.
As a former college hockey player, Attorney Dave Pazz knows how to fight! Attorney Pazz settled our complicated personal injury case in less than 11 months. We highly recommend the Pazz Law Firm.
I highly recommend him to represent you in your injury case/cases. He is extremely supportive through the whole process and let’s you know everything that is happening as he finds out . I felt like I could call him or his awesome paralegal Kim with any questions I had. I'm glad I was referred to his practice. Both Dave and Kim are super friendly, very outgoing and make you feel that you really do matter. Highly recommend. Thanks again Dave!! ☺️☺️
They were proactive, communicative, and truly helpful throughout the process. I never felt left in the dark, and they worked hard to get me a fair settlement.
If you want a law firm that actually cares and fights for you, I highly recommend Pazz Injury Law.
Thank you!!!
What impressed me most was their responsiveness and genuine care. They were always quick to get back to me and really communicated a sense of empathy and compassion for my situation. Dealing with a personal injury is stressful enough - having an attorney who truly understands that and treats you like a person, not just a case number, made all the difference.
I'm highly satisfied with how they handled my case and the outcome we achieved. If you're looking for a personal injury attorney in the East Lyme area who will fight for you while treating you with respect and compassion, I highly recommend Pazz Injury Law.
