Top Personal Injury Lawyers for CT Clients Facing Workplace Injuries

Serving Clients Across Shelton CT & Southern Connecticut

Workplace injuries can have a devastating impact on your health, livelihood, and future. Whether it’s a construction site accident, repetitive strain injury, or slip and fall at the office, these incidents can leave you with unexpected medical bills and time away from work. Navigating the legal process after a workplace injury can be complex, especially when dealing with employers and insurance companies. At Pattis & Paz, we are committed to helping injured workers understand their rights, secure compensation, and get back on their feet as soon as possible.

Common Causes of Workplace Injuries

Workplace injuries can occur in any setting, from industrial sites to corporate offices. Each case is unique, but many result from preventable hazards. Our legal team handles a wide range of workplace injury cases, including those caused by:

Unsafe Working Conditions: Lack of safety equipment, poor lighting, or exposure to hazardous materials

Slip and Falls: Wet floors, unmarked hazards, or poorly maintained walkways

Machinery Accidents: Injuries caused by defective or improperly maintained equipment

Repetitive Stress Injuries: Carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, or other conditions caused by repetitive motions

Construction Site Accidents: Falls from heights, scaffolding collapses, or being struck by falling objects

Securing Compensation for Workplace Injuries

Injured employees may be entitled to several forms of compensation, including workers’ compensation benefits, medical expenses, lost wages, and more. However, pursuing these claims can be complicated. Our team works diligently to build strong cases by collecting evidence, speaking to witnesses, and working with medical experts. We ensure that every angle of your claim is covered, whether you are pursuing a standard workers’ compensation claim or considering legal action against a negligent third party.
