Board Certified Specialist in CONNECTICUT

Workers' Compensation

To become a Board Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist in the State of Connecticut, attorneys must demonstrate a strong dedication to handling workers' compensation cases annually. This includes passing a comprehensive one-day exam and earning Continuing Legal Education Credits in workers' compensation law and ethics on a yearly basis. Additionally, recommendations from both lawyers representing injured workers and lawyers who represent insurance companies are required.

As a Board Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist in Connecticut, I take great pride in maintaining these credentials, which position me among the esteemed group of approximately 50 lawyers in Connecticut who continuously meet these rigorous standards every year. If you have suffered an injury at work and are facing challenges in obtaining the rightful compensation and benefits you deserve, rest assured, I am here to provide assistance.

There are several benefits you may be entitled to claim under workers' compensation, including:

• Medical treatment
• Weekly benefits based on your doctor's determination of work incapacity or light-duty restrictions
• Prescription drug costs
• Mileage reimbursement
• Permanent Partial Disability (PPD) benefits, representing the loss of use you have suffered for your injured body part(s) after treatment

It's important to note that workers' compensation claims in Connecticut are governed by a distinct set of laws separate from personal injury cases. That's why not all personal injury lawyers handle workers' compensation claims.

At Santoro Law Firm, I specialize in handling workers' compensation claims under Connecticut State Law. With extensive experience representing workers' compensation claims at Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun Casinos, I understand the unique challenges involved.
