West Hartford, Connecticut Doctor Abandonment Lawyer Kenneth B. Katz

Suffering an injury on the job is never a good experience, but it's even worse when your doctor won't give you the time of day. Unfortunately, there are many times when doctors just write off their patients and won't provide them with the treatment they need. When doctor abandonment happens, it leaves you unable to work and without the treatment you deserve.

The unfortunate part of doctor abandonment is that you cannot simply switch to a new doctor. The workers' comp system requires you to follow certain rules in these cases. You must get permission to change doctors from the workers' comp insurance company or petition for a new doctor at a hearing before the Connecticut Workers' Compensation Commission.

At the West Hartford Law Offices of Kenneth B. Katz, we have been helping victims of doctor abandonment get appropriate medical treatment for more than 20 years. If your doctor is not listening to you, we will fight aggressively to help you find a new doctor to treat your injuries.

Contact us today for a free initial consultation to see how we can help you resolve your situation and get the treatment you need.

What Can We Do for You If Your Workers' Comp Doctor Has Abandoned You?

If our firm determines that there has been doctor abandonment, we will begin by negotiating with the workers' comp insurance company. In most cases, insurance companies will agree to let you get a second opinion from another doctor or to switch to another doctor. If they refuse, we will represent you in front of the Connecticut Workers' Compensation Commission.

If you think your doctor has stopped listening to you, contact us by e-mail or call 860-986-7831 today for a free initial consultation with the Law Offices of Kenneth B. Katz. We will fight aggressively to make sure you get the treatment you deserve.
