Hurt on the job? You're entitled to medical care and wages lost, as well as compensation for your permanent injury — but employers and the insurance companies don't always pay what they owe. For 34+ years, attorney Tom Ganim has fought to get injured workers every benefit the law allows.
Connecticut law requires your employer — or your employer's insurance company — to cover your medical treatment and a portion of your lost wages when you're injured on the job. On paper, it's that simple.
In practice, claims get delayed, lowballed, or denied. Employers reassign workers improperly, and some even retaliate. Attorney Tom Ganim makes sure you get every benefit Connecticut law entitles you to — and pushes back hard when your employer won't.
From construction sites to offices, injuries happen everywhere. If you were hurt while working in Connecticut, Tom can help you claim what you're owed.
